The Butcher's Wife

She's a dish, a delicious buffet
Always on the play
A smile, a kiss on Christmas Day
But, she's bound to make you ill
And gorge against your will
And put flowers on her window sill
This scene can have, no happy ending
But in the while, its worth pretending
If you care, not to tango with a knife
And be the next in line
If you care, not to meet the after life
Then don't get friendly with the butcher's wife
Appetizing, a tantalizing little tease
Now you're in the freezer
With Charlie, Mike and Ebenezer
Be a man! she says, he's working at the shop
And won't be home till six o'clock
Now he's breaking down the doors and locks
This scene can have, no happy ending
But in the while, its worth pretending
If you care, not to tango with a knife
And be the next in line
If you care, not to meet the after life
Then don't get friendly with the butcher's wife
A word to the wise, avoid her like a bucket of flies
Don't look her straight in the eyes
Surely you're gonna die
This scene can have, no happy ending
But in the while, its worth pretending
If you care, not to tango with a knife
And be the next in line
If you care, not to meet the after life...
Keep your hands off the butcher's wife!
