In several notable works of Western culture, the Dance of the Seven Veils (usually described as danced by Salome) is one of the elaborations on the biblical tale of the execution of John the Baptist. Although the Bible does not give the dance a name, details enriching the story in later Christian mythology include providing a name for the dance, and describing the purpose of the dance as being to inflame King Herod with incestuous desire so that he would grant Salome her wish for the head of the Baptist.

1. Rumours from Paradise
The king lost his mind
Half the truth I was told’s a lie
Once upon a time
She was a courtesan
In the guise of a bride
Memories were dulled that night
Feelings ran wild

Chorus
She did the dance of the seven veils
Did the dance of the seven veils 
And brought the house down
And brought him to his knees

2. There’s so many ways to love
And twice more to hate
What was lost in the mist of time
Lay outside his gate
She was courtesan
Queen to her tribe
And as he defiled the Word
She laughed at his pride

Chorus

Ice flowing through my veins he said
I’m bitter and I’m cold
She cut him with her winter stare
As he gave up his soul
He gave up his soul

3. Now she is going home
Warm in her fate
Wild wolves and serpents show
On the path that she takes
A trace of her sweet perfume
Still lingers in the air
To night when all time will freeze
She’ll be out there

chorus
Doing the dance of the seven veils
Doing the dance of the seven veils
She’ll bring the house down 
And bring you to your knees
