Magdalena Lyrics & Chords By Thrashing Doves

You can call her pleasure
You can call her for pain
You can call her any name that you choose to
Never a friend
You can call her at midnight
And you can touch her at dawn
You can have her anytime it excites you
'Cause she will oblige

Oh, we live in a world where people try
To tie their lovers to a chairoplane
But you keep on pinning her down
She'll cut you up and let you down, yeah

Magdalena, you make your people dance
And Magdalena, you take a chance

You can call her heroine
And you may say she's insane
But you would sacrifice your brothers
On the altar of her desire

From a little whorehouse
Somewhere in Monterey
Magdalena like a hurricane
She'll get the chair this time
Or thirty years inside the pen

Oh, Magdalena, you make your people dance
And Magdalena, you take a chance

Magdalena, you make your people dance
But Magdalena, you take a chance
Magdalena, you make your people dance
And Magdalena, you take a chance
