I had a girl her name was Leizah
She had only one desire
To walk the cobbled streets alone
Heading anywhere but home
With Crowley as her close companion
His diaries went hand in hand with
All the men that she has known
She leaves their silver but keeps their gold
So lawyers, doctors please beware
Of that girl with wavy hair
For she will cut you down to size
Reveal the truth behind your disguise
Leizah
Just passed by her
Now you're standing
Empty handed
Leizah
Can't despise her
She'll change your look
She'll have you hooked
The city sleeps as she's arriving
Tongue tied and twisted was her timing
Her eyes are glazed in deep despair
Those crocodile tears they don't care
Dont turn your back cos she'll be gone
Chasing shadows in the sun
All along the dusty road
Where she goes well we'll never know
And everytime I think of Leizah
I break down and I start crying
Although she tore me apart
There's still a place for that girl in my heart
Leizah
Just passed by her
Now you're standing
Empty handed
Leizah
Can't despise her
She'll change your look
She'll have you hooked
