about

I wrote this song quickly after reading an article in The NY Times about Natascha

lyrics

Ballad of Natascha Kampusch



Am Em
I know when Sunday comes
G C G
For I can hear the bells
Am Em
He says that I’m a ray of light
G C G
So he locks me out of sight
D
In a cell
G
Are you done with me
C G
Are you wicked fool?
C G D Em
Are you done with me wicked fool?
He lets me stroll around the gardens and the trees
With a rope around my waist
He says that if I ever leave him
He’ll shoot himself in the face
With a gun
Are you done with me?
Are you wicked fool?
Are you done with me wicked fool?
True love deserves more than this
That’s what I tell him I tell him this
He serves me lamb and apple crisp
Cleans my dish and then he takes me by the wrist
I don’t exist
Are you done with me?
Are you wicked fool?
Are you done with me wicked fool?
Can you let me out for to see the sun?
Are you done with me wicked one?
There’s no windows in my room
He brings me flowers and he sings
Some old opera that he knows
My skin is white as the snow as the snow
Are you done with me?
Are you wicked fool?


Are you done with me wicked fool?
Can you let me out for to see the sun?
Are you done with me wicked one?
