lyrics

SUSPIRIA (Lyrics: Karen Thompson)

Suzy Banyon, just got in from New York
Little ballet girl, she got herself all wet
She sees a girl running out, running scared
From the Tanz Akademie.
She doesn't stop but Suzy hears her say:

Three Irises, turn the blue one
The secret I saw it-behind that door!

Disembowelments, maggots, and medicated wine
Got Suzy wondering what's going on.
She hears a story about a Black Queen
And then she knows where she's got to go

Three Irises, she turns the blue one
And Hell is waiting there behind that door
Mater Suspiriorum in her hidden lair
Leaving only death in her wake!

Three Mothers from the Black Sea
Three different kinds, of sad ladies
Bad luck doesn't come from-broken mirrors
But broken minds!

Strong-willed Suzy, she went beyond that door
And she found herself a wizened old witch
And the witch said to her 'you want to kill me?'
And Suzy, she got herself real scared

Three Irises, she turns the blue one
The living dead is behind that door
Mater Suspiriorum in her hidden lair
Leaving only death in her wake!

Hey! Yeah! Boo!
