Diamond King The 7th Day Of July 1777 lyrics

Count de LaFey uncovered his cheating wife.
Nine months of loving and sharing....
Oh, it was a bastard child!
How could he have been so blind?!
`No bastard baby will inherit what`s mine!`
Another one of her affairs had left him in despair....
So he pushed her down the stairs to die. . .
`No!` she cried. . .
In 1777, on the 7th Day of July. . . .
The Countess broke her neck,
And the embryo came out dead.
Then he burned his beloved wife,
And the embryo he gave a name. . .
`Abigail, you must rest in shame!
Rest in shame!`
Obsessed
With a strange idea,
He wanted to mummify
The girl for the future to find . . . and he did.
So he pushed her down the stairs to die. . .
`No!` she cried. . .
In 1777, on the 7th Day of July
