L’estat

Madame Moore's estate
Stood five hundred years
Painted black by love
Bathed in widows' tears

She had a maid
The maid remained to tend her
And she tied and drowned her
When she caught her in the bed with her gardener

But she loves him (Yeah yeah)
Oh! But she loves him (Yeah yeah)
Oh! And how she loves that estate
(Estate, estate, estate, estate, estate, estate, estate)

She wouldn't concede out of vanity that
Her servant would ever
Find her love

Her reflection would cry
Down in the lake where she threw the
Corpse for all time

Oh, Madame, sad is your estate
Love blew the roof of your estate

Madame's maid
(I was down to Madame Moore's command)
Madame's maid
(Little could she know I was slave to the land)
Madame's maid
Madame, cheer up!
Come on!

Madame Moore's estate
Fell one summer day
Rolling down to the water
Where the Madames made pants
To her mother, she loves her

Yeah, she loves her (Yeah yeah)
Oh! 'Cause she loves her (Yeah yeah)
Oh! And how she loves that estate
(Estate, estate, estate, estate, estate, estate)

She wouldn't concede out of vanity that
Her servant would ever
Find her love

Her reflection would cry
Down in the lake where she threw the
Corpse for all time

Oh, Madame, sad was your estate
Love blew the roof of this estate

Maria said it was a mistake (Madame Moore, love is mad)
(Madame Moore) Was a mistake (Love is mad)
Maria said it was a mistake (Madame Moore, love is mad)
Was a mistake
Madame, or love that's mad?
Cheer up!
