Lady Macbeth
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Like a jester dressed
In a silly gown
Something evil came to town
At the darkest hour
In the dead of night
All who'd listen gathered round
From the uninspired
From the tortured sounds
No one noticed, what she'd done
By the pricking of my thumbs
Something wicked
This way comes
Like a fool possessed
Evil grabbed the blade
Dripping blood upon the keys
With her cheap disguise
No one realised
How this jester, could deceive
From the uninspired
From the tortured sounds
No one noticed, what she'd done
By the pricking of my thumbs
Something wicked
This way comes
This way comes
This way comes
From the uninspired
From the tortured sounds
No one noticed, what she'd done
Time knows the truth
And her lies linger on
By the pricking of my thumbs
Something wicked
This way comes
By the pricking of my thumbs
Something wicked
This way comes
This way comes
This way comes
Hush now children
Don't you worry
Lots of young ones
Singing mahler
Lies so deadly wrapped in sugar candy
