The Cask of Amontillado The Alan Parsons Project
Lyrics
By the last breath of the four
winds that blow
I'll have revenge upon Fortunato
Smile in his face I'll say "come let us go
I've a cask of Amontillado"
Sheltered inside from the cold of the
snow
Follow me now to the vault down below
Drinking the wine as we laugh at the
time
Which is passing incredibly slow
(What are these chains that are
binding my arms?)
Part of you dies each passing day
(Say it's a game and I'll come to no
harm)
You 'll feel your life slipping away
You who are rich and whose troubles
are few
May come around to see my point of
view
What price the Crown of a King on his
throne
When you're chained in the dark all
alone
(Spare me my life only name your
reward)
Part of ypo dies each brick I lay
(Bring back some light in the name of
the Lord)
You'll feel your mind slipping away
(The System Of)Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether
Just what you need to make you
feel better
Just what you need to make you
feel
Just what you need to make you feel
better
Just what you need to make you feel
At the far end of your tether
And your thoughts won't fit together
So you sleep light or whatever
And the night goes on forever
Then your mind change like the
weather
Youre in need of Doctor Tarr and
Professor Fether
Even clouds seem bright and breezy
'Cause the livin' is free and easy
See the rat race in a new way
Like you're wakin' up to a new day
It's a wise thing if you're clever
Take a lead from doctor Tarr and
Professor Fether
Find the end of a rainbow
Fly wherever the windows blow
Laugh at life like a sideshow
Just what you need to make you feel
better
Satisfaction altogether
Gurantees by Doctor Tarr and
Professor Fether
Find the end of a rainbow
Fly wherever the windows blow
Laugh at life like a sideshow
Just what you need to make you feel
better
Don't stop bringin' the girls round
Don't start havin' a showdown
Keep on handin' the jug round
All that you need is wine and good
company
winds that blow
I'll have revenge upon Fortunato
Smile in his face I'll say "come let us go
I've a cask of Amontillado"
Sheltered inside from the cold of the
snow
Follow me now to the vault down below
Drinking the wine as we laugh at the
time
Which is passing incredibly slow
(What are these chains that are
binding my arms?)
Part of you dies each passing day
(Say it's a game and I'll come to no

You 'll feel your life slipping away
