Torquemada '71 Lyrics

Baby writhing on my torture rack
Necrosadist
Your naked flesh bears His mark
Feed my caress

Torquemada 71
I am the inquisition
Torquemada 71
From your sweet lips, confession
Torquemada 71
My countess Bathory
Torquemada 71
Come now and torture me... yeah

Of all my victims, you loved the pain
My necroqueen
The bloody countess reborn again
"Oui la tortaratrice"

I think it is about blaming inquisition to have sex intercourse and whatever desire wants like BDSM, strap-on, etc., instead of supressing natural impulses and torturing innocent, like in Catholic church used to maintain during Medieval times.

My Interpretation

Great song.

But I think the line is "feel my caress"

It's obviously about Countess Elizabeth Bathory, stated clearly in the lyrics. Allegedly tortured and killed nearly 650 young women to bathe in their blood. Pretty cool shit.

i'm sorry kind sir, that is a part of the lyrics, yes, but the song focuses much more on the inquisition
