Martyrdom Of St. Victor chords by Monty Python
Verse 1
G
And it came to pass
that St. Victor was taken from this
C
place to another place,
G
where he was lain upon pillows of silk,
F#m
and made to rest himself
amongst sheets of
G
muslin and velvet.
And there stroked was he
by maidens of the Orient.
For sixteen days and nights
stroked they him,
yea, verily, and caressed him.
F
His hair ruffled they,
G
and their fingers rubbeth
F
they in oil of olives,
G
and runneth them across all parts
of his body
Eb
for as much as to soothe him.
G
F
And the soles of his feet licked they,
G
and the upper parts of his thigh
did they anoint
with a balm of forbidden trees.
And with the teeth
of their mouths
nibbleth they the pointed bits at the top of his ears,
yea, verily,
C
G
and did their tongues thereof
make themselves acquainted with
his most secret places.
G
For fifteen days and nights
did Victor withstand these maidens,
F
but on the sixteenth day he cried out,
G
saying, This is fantastic, oh,
this is terrific.
F
And the Lord did hear the cry of Victor,
G
and verily came he down and
slew the maidens,
and caused their cotton -wool buds
to blow away
and their Kleenex to be laid waste utterly.
G
And Victor, in his anguish,
cried out
that the Lord was a rotten bastard.
And the Lord sent an angel
F
C
to comfort Victor for the weekend.
G
And entered they together the Jacuzzi.
B
Here endeth the lesson.
