Listen to the winds from the desert's burning waste Hear the words in a fire as it crackles to you Heed these words and don't you forget The devil is a woman A red-headed woman A firey-headed woman Taboo Taboo had a lover many years ago But her lover proved fickle and he left her all alone She died in grief and took the witches curse And she cries in her spirit Now I am the devil Forever man will atone CHORUS: Taboo Made me love you so much Taboo Lips mine could never touch Taboo Devil that you are You're the loveliest of all With your hair of fire Working in the mind of woman like a spider in his web Taboo helps her lure and deceive me and you Charm they call it as she drives you mad It's the work of the devil A red-headed devil A firey-headed woman Taboo.
