The sinful ensemble


Are you ready for the Sinful Ensemble?
Good clean fun - just a bit of rough and tumble.
Dead dictators out on a 'lads night'
ten pints later you'll see a flashing blue light.
Ever wondered where the evil dead go?
There's a little place called "Nightmare Scenario"
Unlicenced establishment for former world powers,
where the drinks are cheap - and it's open all hours.
Bonaparte's on brandy - he swills it down his throat,
Hitler sips a Pilsner while he tells a racist joke.
Mussolini leers at Maggie serving at the bar,
Stalin's out the back trying to sell a dodgy motor car.
Dear God above (if you exist),
hope you see the funny side to this
now don't get cross - don't bite your nails,
oh, Son of Man your mission failed.
Are you ready for the Sinful Ensemble?
Good clean fun - just a bit of rough and tumble.
Dead dictators out on a 'lads night'
ten pints later you'll see a flashing blue light.
Herod's in the family room to baby sit the first born,
Mengele's got a Gladstone bag of cotton wool and chloroform.
Vlad impales glace cherries on a stick just for a lark,
when Pol Pot turns the lights out they'll play murder in the dark.
Are you ready for the Sinful Ensemble?
Good clean fun - just a bit of rough and tumble.
Dead dictators out on a 'lads night'
ten pints later you'll see a flashing blue light.
Genghis Khan just parked his lunch all over Nero's belly,
while the lions beat the christians thirty - nil live on the telly.
Caligula kills 'My Way' on the karaoke stage -
young 'Chezzy' Borgia's barred for life for drinking under age.
This is far more than just a joke.
Can't you see the fire for the smoke?
Choose any public house you please
and find dictators such as these.
Are you ready for the Sinful Ensemble?
Good clean fun - just a bit of rough and tumble.
Dead dictators out on a 'lads night'
ten pints later you'll see a flashing blue light.
Hell is where the heart lies -
(in Purgatory's borders).
The great thing 'bout eternity -
they never call last orders

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Skyclad are a British heavy metal band with strong folk influences in their music. Considered one of the pioneers of folk metal, the name comes from a pagan/wiccan term for ritual nudity, in which rituals are performed with participants metaphorically clad only by the sky, as a sign of equality. The name alludes both to the band's religious leanings and to their social beliefs, as set out in the song "Skyclad" on their first album. The group released a series of albums between the 1990s and 2000s, combining elements of heavy metal with traditional folk melodies and lyrics often inspired by British mythology and history. Among the most representative tracks are "The Serpent's Tongue", "The Ballad of the Green Man" and "Skyclad".
