Cleanliness Freak Serial Killer Mom

Dear Lord please have gentle mercy
There has surely been a worst she.
Please help me spare her worthless life.
Wasn’t most horrible mom and wife.

Serial killer? Simple she?
Dear Lord, please have gentle mercy.
Victims from that faraway town.
Evidence illegally found.

Dear Lord, please have gentle mercy.
There has surely been a worse she.
Her spotless house is always clean.
Maybe that’s what made her completely mean?
