This Lady Can Bedevil
This is a tale
About three men now in jail
Who fell under the spell
Of a vixen who played them well.
She plays men as the fool
Getting them to do what she wants them to
All the time remaining cool
She has an unlimited resource pool.
She entices them with sex
Putting them under her hex
Then puts them to the test
Having them put a spouse to rest.
Insurance is her gain
Without suffering any pain
To her it’s just a game
She plots again to do the same.
When once again she’s wed
And a new policy is fed
She takes a lover to her bed
And puts murder in his head.
Somehow every time
She stays clear of the crime
And on the lover drops the dime
Getting another spouse in line.
About this there is no question
Hell is her destination
I’ll put it on the level
This lady can bedevil.
