Catharine de Medici a truly evil woman
Mistress of Italy's renaissance history
After the d**h 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 k**ed by Henry
But after his d**h they kept on coming
Catherine had to take radical action
[Chorus:]
A wedding drenched in blood
A cruel and brutal ma**acre
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 ma**acre
On the day of Saint Bartholomew
Wedding guests dragged from their beds
All slaughtered unceremoniously
A heavy blow to the Huguenot party
[Chorus]
