lyrics

An impish chambermaid
did tip toe on the braid
connecting her majesty's craft to the port
untied it just for sport

Amelis Amelis

Her ink was always blue
it sinks right into you
Be careful with her poetry
her scribbled sorcery
Amelis, Amelis, Amelis

Her undying face

Her ghost is on the lam
she spoke with Abraham
She's going after them with a knife
sharpened on her stone
Amelis, Amelis, Amelis
