<b>LIZZY BORDEN</b> by <i>Macabre</i><br />Lizzie Borden axe murderess

In American folklore the term was synonymous

Se wake the maid who was napping in her bed

As Lizzie yelled to the maide, father is dead!

CHORUS

Lizzie Borden took an axe

Gaver her stepmother twenty whacks

While on the couch her father slept

She hacked him till no life was left

Her stepmother was hacked as she made the bed

With father on the couch nine axe wounds to his head

It seems that Lizzie would of had some motive

And time to destroy incriminating evidence

(CHORUS)

Lizzie's alibi was very weak at best

She was the mains suspect which led to her arrest

Then they charged Lizzie Borden with the axe murders

The slaughter of her stepmother and her father

(CHORUS)

And Lizzie Borden's trial was irrelevant

Because the evidence was insufficient

And even though she probably did it

Lizzie Borden was acquited
