The Case of Arthur Tannen

Once there was a queen Swore an oath on saintly bones Come on, give her dreams To foil his plans and leave her throne The case of Arthur Tannen Body decomposed Like the soil in his fingernails How will he dispose This sceptre of her sweet betrayal? The case of Arthur Tannen Clawing to his sculpture It takes its place in the marble hall He knows to hold her With his life to break her fall The case of Arthur Tannen This is how it ends It's all a tale of cat and mouse If you can pretend I'll see you in the slaughterhouse The case of Arthur Tannen
