Song for Ruth Ellis




Modelling and whoring
Pregnancy, abortive
Bad girl of the fifties

Take a legend, death style
Take a legend, death style (wah-ooh)
Take a legend, death style

Smashing the car window
Have a drink of Pernod
Give the girl a bullet

Violence in Hampstead
Violence in Hampstead
Violence in Hampstead

Though you killed, you’re not to blame, no
You loved so much you killed yourself
Dear Ruth, ah!

Ruthy, you are a Monroe-oooooh
And I love your p’roxide hair
With you, least I know there’s no

Celluloid within you (wah-ooh)
Celluloid within you (wah-ooh)

Violence in Hampstead
Violence in Hampstead
Oooh, ooooh-ooh, wa-oooh

Take a legend, death style
Take a legend, death style
Oooh, oooh, wah-ooh.
