Aqua Toffana
Can you keep a secret?
Promise not to tell?
Someone's slipped me aqua toffana
To ensure I don't get well
Nobody believes me
When I tell them so
I say I've been poisoned
And they just stare and ask me how I know
Well
I can feel it
Oh, I can feel it
I can feel it
Fingers at my window
Grey man at my door
He knows what I'm writing
But darling only I know who it's for
Oh, how very quickly
My tenure was spent
I had so much promise
That oftentimes I wonder where it went
Fluster, change the subject
Won't make me forget
I know Death is lurking
I just haven't seen or heard It yet
But
I can feel It
Oh, I can feel It
I can feel It
Oh, I can feel It
Ah, I can feel It
I can feel It
And if I die tomorrow
That will show you then
Leave me to my sorrow
My bill collectors, and my requiem
Leave me to my sorrow
My bill collectors, and my requiem
La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la
Promise not to tell?
Someone's slipped me aqua toffana
To ensure I don't get well
Nobody believes me
When I tell them so
I say I've been poisoned
And they just stare and ask me how I know
Well
I can feel it
Oh, I can feel it
I can feel it
Fingers at my window
Grey man at my door
He knows what I'm writing
But darling only I know who it's for
Oh, how very quickly
My tenure was spent
I had so much promise
That oftentimes I wonder where it went
Fluster, change the subject
Won't make me forget
I know Death is lurking
I just haven't seen or heard It yet
But
I can feel It
Oh, I can feel It
I can feel It
Oh, I can feel It
Ah, I can feel It
I can feel It
And if I die tomorrow
That will show you then
Leave me to my sorrow
My bill collectors, and my requiem
Leave me to my sorrow
My bill collectors, and my requiem
La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la
