Lyrics
William fancied himself a boy too sensible for his own good
So on the eve of his wedding day he bought a girl in the hood
She cut him once from stem to stern
Dowsed him good with gasoline
Sit back and watched his body burn
Well honey ain’t that a scene?
Never bet The Devil your head for heaven’s sake
Or tempt a hungry demon when his hounds are on the make
And here’s a rule to live by, if you wanna stay alive
Always watch your neck around the tall man with a scythe
Susan had always lived a quiet life, but tonight she had an itch
So she asked the scruffy neighbor boy over for a piece of fish
But when he leaned in for a kiss
She laughed so hard she spit her drink
So he chopped her up in little bits
Then washed up in the sink
Never bet The Devil your head for heaven’s sake
Or tempt a hungry demon when his hounds are the make
And here’s a rule to live by, if you wanna stay alive
Always watch your neck around the tall man with a scythe
