The sands have run out for your lady and me
Wedlock is nigh my love
Her station's right my love
Live is secure with Lady Jane

No Picture quinn almann ' Wanna Be	#3 by quinn almann ' jk carson at May 28, 1973 at 5:07 PM EST
	It is in fact about Jane Seymour, why I'm not quite sure. She was an ugly old cow who had nothing to offer the world except her sickly son who died at 15. The Marie is the Virgin Mary, he (being Henry VIII), is dying and looking forward to seeing his "True Queen"(true Queen she was not, she has Anne Boleyn's blood allll over her crown jewls). "the sand have run out" making reference to that.

No Picture Will Average	#4 by Will Yost at Nov 21, 1974 at 12:10 AM EST
	poor keith man..he has had so many problems, mental and physical. great great song tho.

No Picture Vicky Average	#5 by Vicky Barnard at Mar 17, 1975 at 12:10 AM EST
	UKHIST might well be right about Marie being The Lady Mary, but is certainly wrong about Jane being a good stepmother to Elizabeth and Mary. Perhaps she was kind to Mary, but she was uterlly rude to Elizabeth, and called her "Mark Smeaton's bastard", and would not call her back to court. "Lady Anne" is Anne of Cleves, as there is no hint of former romance or hatred in his words as there would have been for Anne Boleyn.

No Picture Average	#6 by Fig at Jul 7, 1977 at 12:14 PM EST
	"Jane" is Jane Seymour, Henry's favorite wife (as she gave him a son). "Anne" is Anne Boleyn, who preceded Jane as queen consort and who's "time came" on the block in 1536. "Marie" is a reference to Henry's daughter, Mary. If you listen closely, he sings not about Marie but about how the "the sands have run out/for your lady and me" - Marie's lady was her mother, Catherine of Aragon. Also, "life is secure with Lady Jane" may refer to the historical fact that Jane was a good stepmother to Mary and Elizabeth or to the fact that Henry now had a son to succeed him, sickly though the son was.

No Picture Brett Professional	#7 by Brett Czap at Aug 9, 1983 at 12:25 AM EST
	Only a true Stones' fan knows and appreciates this song...it's sad that Keith didn't play on this!! "Glam Rock" before that term ever existed.

No Picture Spymaster Lead Player	#8 by Spymaster - Halo 2 at Jul 31, 1984 at 4:16 AM EST
	Ladies Jane, Anne, and Marie seem to all be references to each murdered aristocrat-- Lady Jane was beheaded by her sister Queen Mary when she (Jane) was crowned Queen for maybe a couple of days, Queen Anne was beheaded by her husband, and Marie is Queen Marie Antoinette, also beheaded. What's funny is that the only one he stays with in the song is Lady Jane... I sort of wonder why that was...

No Picture Colin Wanna Be	#9 by Colin Gauld at Feb 5, 1985 at 4:57 PM EST
	nice interp. i had no clue, my fav line was "Your organs working perfectly, but there's a part that's not screwed on." But shit this song is soo damn UNDERrated

No Picture Jeremy Average	#10 by Jeremy Rees at Nov 12, 1989 at 7:34 AM EST
	Oh, and the "Dear Lady Anne" would be Anne of Cleves, who he married and subsoquently divorced after the pathetic death of Jane.

No Picture Julian Average	#11 by Julian . at Jun 20, 1993 at 6:14 AM EST
	This song is great. Mick Jagger sang it in Italian for in Milan, Italy. First show after Keith got his brain surgery. It sounded alot better in Italian to be honest, but none the less, a deep and great song. That was one hell of a show by the way ;)

No Picture Reece Wanna Be	#12 by Reece Brown at May 21, 1999 at 2:19 PM EST
	you guys, this songs good

No Picture Zach Wanna Be	#13 by Zach Honeycutt at Sep 26, 2002 at 10:05 AM EST
	it's as if queen was singing desolation row on smack. bizarre and great.

No Picture albert Rhythm Player	#14 by albert casualtie at May 19, 2004 at 5:45 PM EST
	Ok, sorry Acey Dearest has his history a little messed up. If the song is in fact referring to those figures of Tudor Times, it does not refer to Jane Grey Nine Days Queen and COUSIN of Mary, not sister but in fact to Jane Seymour, whom Henry called his "True Wife" because she gave him a son. In order to take the actions he wanted with Jane he had to divorce and then subsequently behead Anne Boleyn. The only confusing reference is "Marie" as Marie Antoinette did not have anything to do with the Tudor court, but i suppose it is a reference to her beheading.

No Picture Jared Wanna Be	#15 by Jared van Eck at May 20, 2006 at 2:37 PM EST
	Perhaps Jagger's finest song, but what does it all mean? Looking round the net it seems that for some prayer rituals orthodox Jews wear a religious garment which can be described as a sleevless shirt. The writer goes on to say that describing the man as 'Spanish speaking' is a reference to the Jews' exile from Spain in, I think, the middle ages. Though why he has a German-sounding name like Kurt isn't explained. The dominant theme is, of course, one of homosexuality. I think it may be the first time in popular culture where gayness is linked not with effeminacy but with an overt masculine sexuality. For examply the same year that Performance was released The Boys in the Band showed us a selection of campy self-hating drama queens. Also the line "the young girls eat their mother's meat from tubes of plasticon" is the kind of queasily sexual/violent image you'd find in William Burroughs. Also, just remembered that there is indeed a Burrough's book called The Soft Machine. I suppose the song, and the film Performance, were informed at some level by the fact of Reggie Kray's sexuality and the fact that an incredibly masculine (in fact psychotic) man could be gay.

No Picture Daniel Average	#16 by Daniel Gordon at Aug 19, 2007 at 7:56 PM EST
	Wow I like that theory a lot Acey. I just though it was about a huy who can't make his mind up between these three ladies that he is banging.
