Madame Jeneva - Daisy Chapman[00:00:00]

Written by：Daisy Chapman[00:00:05]

In the late 1730s the decandent ladies[00:00:10]

Fled to the west leaving the rest[00:00:16]

In the flame scarred frown of East London town[00:00:20]

Where the hookers and bookers reside[00:00:26]

From the embers rose the rookeries[00:00:30]

Housing vice and debauchery[00:00:36]

And the name of this fever[00:00:41]

Was Madame Jeneva[00:00:46]

Oh drunk for a penny and dead drunk for two[00:00:51]

Clean straw for nothing come celebrate your suffering[00:00:57]

Madame Jeneva she will defeat ya[00:01:02]

Slappy Bonita she will decieve ya[00:01:07]

Her juniper berries set many a ladies'[00:01:21]

Hearts a flutter but their souls in the gutter[00:01:26]

Back streets of St Giles played host to the smiles[00:01:31]

Of the hags with their gin soaked rags[00:01:36]

Ms Eastwick and Miss Dafur[00:01:41]

Ransom offspring for liquor[00:01:46]

Escape the horrors of Gin Lane[00:01:52]

For the labrynth of Mother's Ruin[00:01:57]

Oh drunk for a penny and dead drunk for two[00:02:01]

Clean straw for nothing come celebrate your suffering[00:02:07]

Madame Jeneva she will deceive ya[00:02:12]

Slappy Bonita she will defeat ya[00:02:17]

William Hogarth sketched the aftermath[00:03:01]

Ink to paper some years later[00:03:05]

Marking the pity and stench of the city[00:03:10]

That the well to do left in their wake[00:03:15]

Oh drunk for a penny and dead drunk for two[00:03:19]

Clean straw for nothing come celebrate your suffering[00:03:25]

Madame Jeneva she will deceive ya[00:03:30]

Slappy Bonita she will defeat ya[00:03:35]
