Doctor Faustus Horseshoes splackin' Swallows hay cart, cart horse Of the peasants blocking his path Doctor Faustus Power showin' Spits out hay cart, cart horse, hay and box Outside the gates of the town of Anholt Had your chances, you've had your chance You've had your chances, you've had your chance Doctor Faustus At the court of the Count Made fruits exotic pleasure-licious Appear behind curtains in Winter (Banana! Apple, Plum) Faustus (Exotic fruits) At court of decadent Count Made animals from sunny lands appear (banana!) In the sparse gartens (Strawberries, exotic fruits) You've had your chances, you've had your chance You've had your chances, you've had your chance (Banana!) Doctor Faustus Horseshoes splackin' Swallows hay cart, cart horse Hay and box (cherry) Of the peasant blocking his path (banana) Had to leave (apples, cherries) His drinking student friends (exotic fruits) (Doctor Faustus, Doctor Faustus) (Exotic fruits) (Lemon) (Strawberry) (Doctor Faustus, Doctor Faustus) Had your chances, you've had your chance Had your chances, you've had your chance Had your chances, you've had your chance Had your chances, you've had your chance There's a blood silhouette through the ceiling sky There's a blood silhouette through the ceiling sky There's a blood silhouette through the ceiling sky There's a blood silhouette through the ceiling sky Banana! Had your chance, you've had your chances (banana!) There's a blood silhouette through the ceiling sky Had your chance (banana!) There's a blood silhouette through the ceiling sky Doctor Faustus, Doctor Faustus Banana! There's a blood silhouette through the ceiling sky There's a blood silhouette through the ceiling sky Banana! Doctor Faustus Had your chance Banana! Had your chances Banana! There's a blood silhouette through the ceiling sky Banana!
