Taxidermy Girl

You were young

You were bright

You were a star in the night

You were gorgeous

How it turned me on

As you danced on our lawn

In your wedding dress

And one day

Out of the blue

You said, "Baby, we're through

I don't love you"

You said, "I found someone new

Who does all of those things

You can't do"

Well, you left

With your things

In his car you went far

But I found you

I burst through the door

As you were playing his whore

Oh, how could you?

And I held up my knife

I screamed, "You stole my wife

Now you'll pay"

You cried as I slashed him

And I yelled, "shut up and hear what I say"

This is what I said

I said, "You are my wife

And I am your husband

God brought us together

But I'm fixing to take you apart

I'll pack you with sawdust

And dress you up in pretty things

Without you as my wife

I've no reason for life

But I've still got my heart

I've got my heart

I've got my heart"

I tied him to a chair

'Cause life just ain't fair

What can you do?

You broke my heart

So I'll tear him apart

And soon

I'll kill you too

Unless you repent of your sin

And come back home to your husband

Who you belong

I'm going to tear out your eyes

And your insides

As I sing my song

This is what I'll sing

I'll sing, "You are my wife

And I am your husband

God brought us together

But I'm fixing to take you apart

I'll pack you with sawdust

And dress you up in pretty things

Without you as my wife

I've no reason for life

But I've still got my heart

I've got my heart

I've got my heart"

You are my wife

And I am your husband

God brought us together

But I'm fixing to take you apart

I'll pack you with sawdust

And dress you up in pretty things

Without you as my wife

I've no reason for life

But I've still got my heart

I've got my heart

I've got my heart

I've got my heart

I've got my heart

I've got my heart
