[Verse 1]
She is a voice for the indisposed
She is the empress in new clothes
She is a pseudo-communist
You're number one on her little black list
She'll preach the importance of being earnest
They flock like moths to a furnace
She'll hide your Cupid's deadly arrow
Then string you up onto the gallows
[Pre-Chorus]
Lightning surges run through my veins
Deep below me I feel the earth shake
Black ash fallen is pouring like rain
She's a work of art but I'm still the same
[Chorus]
Oh, Bella Donna
Look what you've done to me
Oh, Bella Donna
This poison tastes so sweet
[Verse 2]
She is a voice of the dispossessed
You best wear a bullet-proof vest
And when you get that cardiac arrest
A crowd will gather and wonder who's next
[Pre-Chorus]
Lightning surges run through my veins
Deep below me I feel the earth shake
Black ash fallen is pouring like rain
She's a work of art but I'm still the same
[Chorus]
Oh, Bella Donna
Look what you've done to me
Oh, Bella Donna
This poison tastes so sweet
[Bridge]
Beauty is a weapon, it'll be the death of me
Bella Donna
Beauty is a weapon, it'll be the death of me
Bella Donna
Beauty is a weapon, it'll be the death of me
Bella Donna
Oh!
[Chorus]
Oh, Bella Donna
Look what you've done to me
Oh, Bella Donna
This poison tastes so sweet
