A Virgin's Demise

(new moon verse)

Remember when november came the leaves all turned, the sky turned grey

A malefic fog descended on our humble town.

They say at night a stranger came but no one could recall his name

As everyone who met his gaze fell feverish and numb

And the moon shone down with a cold pale frown

And it marked us with a memory of an ancient fear

And a people once so proud and brave forgot their hearts and hid away

For they feared their daughters final days too soon would come

(new gibbous verse)

And when the dawn returned again 'twas as if the fog had never come

And they wondered had this nightmare, had it all been in their heads

And all had thought their fears were wrong til macgregor said 'my missy's gone!'

And they searched the forest far and long but not one trace did appear.

And the moon shone down with a cold pale frown

In the blanket of the night their came a sinister howl.

They all kneeled by their beds and prayed a selfish wish that god would save

Them from a grim and early grave and a maniac unknown.

(full moon)

Then by the full moons baneful scorn their sweet young flesh was torn

A pair of red glaring eyes the last sight of a virgin's demise

And many a father fell torn apart by this demon from hell

And a howl ripped through the night!

(blood moon verse)

Then on novembers final eve a wicked wind blew all the leaves

And a pale and raven lass appeared with eyes as black as night.

As soon as all the people learned macgregor's daughter had returned

They feared she was a witch and swore she must be burned.

And the moon shone down with a cold pale frown

As they bound her to a stake in the center of the town.

But just as they had lit thee flames a clap of thunder brought the rain

And the people watched and went insane as she turned into a wolf,

And that just stood as proof, missy macgregor's not a virgin anymore!
