Mary Dances In The Shadows, The Holiest Of Harlots Lyrics
"Mary Dances In The Shadows (The Holiest Of Harlots)"
Mary dances in the shadows
{Dressed in stockings made of white,}
She provides herself to angels
{Seeking salvage to bear child.}
Mary dances in the sunshine
{She's the mother of the damned,}
She's the mother of delusions
{She's the concubine of man...}
Mary dances in the shadows
{Mary dances all alone,}
Little Mary child of prayers
{Only angels hear you moan.}
Mary dances in the sunshine
{Dressed in stockings made of black,}
Finding cloister in the sacred
{Finding salvage on her back...}
Mary dances in the rainfall
{Playing gently with a rose,}
Dressed nothing but her stockings
{Mary dances all exposed.}
Mary dances for the angels
{She's a puppet turned to queen,}
She's the harlot of the holy
{Only angels hear her sing...}
{Dressed in stockings made of white,}
She provides herself to angels
{Seeking salvage to bear child.}
{She's the mother of the damned,}
She's the mother of delusions
{She's the concubine of man...}
{Mary dances all alone,}
Little Mary child of prayers
{Only angels hear you moan.}
{Dressed in stockings made of black,}
Finding cloister in the sacred
{Finding salvage on her back...}
{Playing gently with a rose,}
Dressed nothing but her stockings
{Mary dances all exposed.}
{She's a puppet turned to queen,}
She's the harlot of the holy
{Only angels hear her sing...}

It's a sacrilegious song. Whenever I hear it I try to give it a positive spin in my mind...Mother Mary hears the sins of others; therefore, she's not the one committing the actual sins. I think the creative Ordo knows one should never speak ill of someone's mother, especially the Mother of God....which is why he does in this song:)
It's a song about a mama's boy who never out grew his holy mother's tit. Strange.

Crap, that was horrible on multiple levels, sorry.

There's no reference to any boy...or the other word you used. Your interpretation is 'stange,' but it's better than mine 'cause I can't figure out the song.
