The Black Knight Songtext / Lyric

Born in fourteen o four

Gilles De Rais came from a family of knights

He was known as a great hero and worst villain during his life

In the Hundred Years' War he served as lieutenant for Saint Joan of Arc

During the second half of the War as they struggled but made their mark



Gilles De Rais was the man

Aristocrat in his homeland

Gilles De Rais was the man

A hero in his homeland



Gilles De rais played a crucial role in France's greatest victories

So he was named the Marshall of France at the age twenty

It wasn't only in the military Rais shared Joan of Arc's mission

He was a devout Catholic and a believer in her holy (visions)



Gilles De Rais was the man

Aristocrat in his homeland

Gilles De Rais was the man

A hero in his homeland






After Joan of Arc's execution and his victory at Lagny

Rais came home and waged war against kids in his vicinity

He would sodomize the children, mostly boys but girls as well

Rais would kill and cut them open and masturbate on their entrails



Gilles De rais was the man

Who cut up the French children

What Gilles De Rais would do then

Is masturbate on their organs



He got away with murder for eight years with his noble position

Rais dabbled in occult while he eliminated local children

Rais sacrificed kids and the Black Magic summoning demons from hell

Gilles De Rais spent most of his money and used magicians to replenish his wealth



Gilles De Rais killing ways finally ceased

He sold a castle and took it back with force by beating a priest

A violation against the church that stripped Rais of his position

Soon after that they solved the mystery of the missing children



Gilles De rais was the man

Who cut up the French children

What Gilles De Rais would do then

Is masturbate on their organs



They searched Rais' castle and then found fifty mutilated kids

Faced with torture and excommunication

Rais confessed to what he did

Condemned by the church for using Black Magic and the court for murder

Rais was executed where he was simultaneously hanged and burned



Gilles De rais was the man

Who cut up the French children

What Gilles De Rais would do then

Is masturbate on their organs
