Scheherazade Dancer Lyrics

I'm free and proud

Everything in me turned up loud

The executioner's daughter's the dancer

Oh desert sun

My life had gathered no place left to run

And I sat beside a beautiful woman

Fingered her gun

Lay me low

A heart is homeless with no place to go

I watched you grind your Cuban heels

For the money they throw

Metronome swinging

I charge my heart in the words they're singing

And I bow down to you and your nature

Let it roar

Scheherazade dancer

The seas will rise for her

She's mastered her body

Let it roar

Roar

Roar

Let her roar

Roar

Roar

Scheherazade dancer

She's telling her story

Stamp your foot little dancer

Let it roar

Roar

Roar

Let her roar

Roar

Roar

Peace will come

When the men who banished it all have gone

And I'll stand and howl at the moon

Call it song

Time is short

We bowed our heads to the rage of the world

And we made love in passion and protest

On that dirty old road

Trace of you slight

The children enamoured with the grace that you shone

You hand down your Olympian virtue

For us all to hold on

On the road

And she left the beggars begging for more

She threw down her life like a dancer

On a slow slugger's floor

Scheherazade dancer

She's telling her own story

She's mastered her body

Let it roar

Roar

Roar

Let her roar

Roar

Roar

Scheherazade dancer

Light your love by her

Stamp your foot little dancer

Let it roar

Roar

Roar

Let her roar

Roar

Roar

Let her roar

Roar

Roar

Roar

Let her roar

Roar

Roar
