Those Poor Bastards – Neglected Wife lyrics

Into her heart the knife she stuck
She said, "Now you’re through you lazy slut
You stole my man and made him lose his head
So like a rabid dog, well I shot him dead
I hung him from a chain link fence
And now you fiend, well you are next
God won't want your corrupted soul
Adulterer, straight down to hell you'll go

Then I'll wait for a night sick with fog
And cut you down to feed to Henderson's hog
Then silently, without a single sound
I'll bury what's left deep in unhallowed ground
After you've lain there for about a year
I'll dig you up just like you always feared
Oh I'll pulverize your last remains
And wash 'em clean in the toxic rain

Then I'll head on down to Mexico
Where of my deeds, no one shall know
I’ll drink the wine, but I will not forget
Each gory deed, I'll want to savor it
I'll sleep in peace with heart content
With mind at ease and back unbent
My hurts will heal, yours shall not
No you won't even have a corpse to rot

My husband was a useless man
Now you can't have him, nobody can
It's a lesson you'll have to learn with your life
Don't you never mess with a neglected wife
So now I'm free to find someone new
My feelings for that scum they had long been through
Oh love is always evil, death is never kind
Those are simple truths that you must keep in mind
Yes love is always evil, death is never kind
Those are simple truths that you must keep in mind."
