about

A song about romance and homicide, and finding the quickest way to a man's heart.

lyrics

To get by in this world, you need man, they say.
Well, I’ve got no shortage looking my way
But I’m very particular about my type.
Say you want a man’s affections, you gotta earn ‘em.
Nah; the way to his heart is straight through the sternum.
That man'll love you the rest of his life.

You’d think that’d stop gentlemen comin’ around,
I’ve been courted by near every man in this town.
One even asked me to be his wife,
Then I took out my second best knife.
I’ll leave the rest to your imagination.
But you know, I’ve got a reputation.

I need a man who’s got my back,
Or I’ll bury him in the garden in a burlap sack
Right beside the turnips and the peas.
He’ll find his final resting place there
Next to the doctor, and on top of the mayor.
He’ll regret coming by and sayin’ “darlin’, please”.


You’d think that’d stop gentlemen comin’ around,
I’ve been courted by near every man in this town.
One even asked me to be his wife,
Then I took out my second best knife.
I’ll leave the rest to your imagination.
But I'm not even under investigation.

I need a man who’ll tend to my roses,
Or I’ll put a space on his face where his nose is.
One who won’t spout tired lines at me
One said my eyes were like blue pools of wonder,
So we went to the ocean and I held him under.
Said that he’d always wanted to visit the sea.

You’d think that’d stop gentlemen comin’ around,
but I’ve been courted by near every man in this town.
One even asked me to be his wife,
Then I took out my second best knife.
I’ll leave the rest to your imagination.
They think I should be flattered by their “Dedication”.

Not lookin' for someone who's my kind of villain,
I just want somebody I don’t feel like killin’
Won’t come by my gate to waste my time.
Someone who's honest and plain,
I’d hesitate before causin’ him pain.
Just speak your mind, we’ll get along just fine.
