Dorthea`s Dead Folks Home (Dorthea Puent — текст песни (macabre)

Dorthea had a bad place that was a disgrace
a home for old people for a monthly rate
with the help of her son
the old folks` home she`d run
and things seemed quite normal
but something was wrong

The people that graced old Dorthea`s place
had no friends or family that she`d have to face
so she thought of a scam
her son the right hand man
a very demented and morbid plan

The old folks` social security checks
to Dorthea were sent
she was allowed to cash
tenants` checks for their rent
but the tenants were dead
all poisoned to death
so they wouldn`t have to be
cared for or fed

With the help of her son
buried one by one
in Dorthea`s yard
`til someone caught on
Dorthea did plead guilty for her deeds
Dorthea`s dead folks home
is now history
