People who famously lost their heads....

lyrics

John the Baptist pushed his luck a bit too far
King don't like no prophet who's a big time star
Step-Daughter pulled a trick on him for her Ma
Baptist is singing the blues

Anne Boleyn lay down upon the chopping block
Executioner took her head clean off
Thought she had a cold now she got a cough
That's why she's singing the blues
That's why she's singing
That's why she's singing the blues

Marie Antoinette went to the guillotine
Laid out with her head snugly in between
Ended like a Cabbage in a Red Tureen
That's why she's singing the blues
That's why she's singing
That's why she's singing the blues

Isadora Duncan in an open top
What a lovely scarf Isadora got
Tangled in the wheels before she could shout stop
That's why she's singing the blues
That's why she's singing the blues
Yeah, that's why she's singing the blues
