You are the first
Will be my last
Will be my final words
(Said she)
Ah, Pyretta Blaze
You are the first
Will be my last
Will be my final words
(Said she)
Ah, Pyretta Blaze
[Outro]
(Said she)
Ah, Pyretta Blaze
(Said she)
Ah, Pyretta Blaze
(Said she)
Ah, Pyretta Blaze

“I wanted to get away from the whole sex thing [on this album], but I couldn’t resist putting just one sexually orientated song in there. ‘Pyretta Blaze’ is this fantasy woman… A female pyromaniac that I have to punish her for being a bad girl. – Peter Steele, Outburn Magazine, 2000.
