Final Fantasy → Spectrum, 14th Century → “Blue Imelda”

Lyrics

Blue Imelda, she’s the saddest bitch in all of Spectrum
She can’t rely on business to keep herself satisfied
For we are only farmers and the love of a farmer
Has one hand on the headboard and the other in the soil

Oh Lord, I’m yours forever, I will never take a lover
I’ll keep myself as pious as my body will allow
But I am just a farmer, and the body of the farmer
Has one eye on the pussy and the other on the plough

I bow, I bend deeply
I’m sheepish and barely able to say it from beginning to the end
Your shirt is torn to ribbons
Woman, can I take you as a friend?
