Blood Wedding (St. Bartholomew's Day 1572)
Catharine de Medici a truly evil woman Mistress of Italy's renaissance history After the death of her husband Henry II Regent of France in a time of turmoil Calvinism's thought spreading like a plague The sick teachings of true Christianity Attacking the evil Catholic church And even challenging the monarchy In the 1550's the burnings began Many Huguenots already killed by Henry But after his death they kept on coming Catherine had to take radical action [Chorus:] A wedding drenched in blood A cruel and brutal massacre Thousands of Huguenots dead Hail to the evil Catherine In Paris they all came together Many important Huguenot leaders To celebrate Navarre's wedding But their feast became a massacre Letras de cancionesOn the day of Saint Bartholomew Wedding guests dragged from their beds All slaughtered unceremoniously A heavy blow to the Huguenot party [Chorus] From Letras Mania
