Once there was a queen
Swore an oath on saintly bones
..... give her dreams
To foil his plans
And leave her throne
The Case of Arthur Tannen

Body decomposed
Like the soil in his fingernails
How will he dispose?
This cup will have
Her sweet betrayal
The Case of Arthur Tannen

Clawing to his sculpture
It takes its place
In the marble hall
He knows to hold her with his life
To break her fall
The Case of Arthur Tannen

This is how it ends
It's all a tale
Of cat and mouse
If you can pretend
I'll see you in the slaughterhouse
The Case of Arthur Tannen
