Lyrics
She found him hanging
Among the ruins of his castle
His neck in an old strap
That he used to beat her with
And when the neighbours came
To say, "What a terrible shame"
She wanted to tell them about
The time he put it in her mouth
She gives herself for free
To anyone who shows her any decency
She dreams alone at night
Under a cardboard sky
Of a girl
In a pretty dress
Long before her life
Became a sorry mess.
