Sade - Jezebel(Bring me Home)

Sade - Jezebel(Bring me Home) Jezebel wasn't born with a silver spoon in her mouth She probably had less than every one of us But when she knew how to walk she knew How to bring the house down Can't blame her for her beauty She wins with her hands down Jezebel, what a belle Looks like a princess in her new dress How did you get that ? Do you really want to know she said It would seem she's on her way It's more, more than just a dream She put on her stockings and shoes Had nothing to lose, she said it was worth it Reach for the top And the sun is gonna shine Every winter was a war she said I want to get what's mine Jezebel, Jezebel Won't try to deny where she came from You can see it in her pride And the raven in her eyes Try show her a better way She'll say you don't know what you've been missing And by the time she blinks you know she won't be listening Reach for the top she said And the sun is gonna shine Every winter was a war she said I want to get what's mine Jezebel was a princess, identified in the Hebrew Book of Kings as the daughter of Ethbaal, King of Tyre (Phoenicia) and the wife of Ahab, king of north Israel. According to the biblical accounts, Jezebel incited her husband King Ahab to abandon the worship of Yahweh and encourage worship of the deities Baal and Asherah instead. Jezebel is said to have persecuted the prophets of Yahweh, and to have fabricated false evidence of blasphemy against an innocent landowner who refused to sell his property to King Ahab, causing the landowner to be put to death. For these transgressions against the God and people of Israel, the Bible relates, Jezebel met a gruesome death - thrown out of a window by members of her own court retinue, and the flesh of her corpse eaten by stray dogs. ...wikipedia ... = 珏 =
