Shattercane & Velvet Grass
BRIDGET Fire burn and toil Kettle bubble, water boil Assam, Ceylon Bitter, trouble, very strong
Black leaves and steep Settle, cozy, dark as sleep O soothe this day Milk and sugar, cuppa tay
LIZZIE Shattercane and velvet grass Sorghum and white clover Millipedes and burnet moths Flax when winter's over Cherry stones and apricots Pale and milky silent Poison forage, Prussian blue Beautiful and violent
Ferric ferrocyanide Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Three hand parts per million Prussic acid, bluish-clear Protoplasmic poison Boils at twenty-six degrees And faintly tasts of almonds Death is by paralysis Of heart and respiration Passes through unbroken skin Careful! For it's found within
Following directions in the Book of Household Poisons Just a drop dropped in the milk And hope that she'll enjoy some Mind you don't forget to close your Eyes and hold your breath But wouldn't it be easy now A perfect little death? Just drop a grain into her tea Mrs. Borden R.I.P.
