lyrics

I’ve got a wicked love story like none you’ve heard before
A girl just like the others and the man that she adored
Her hair was red and lively, his a dull and deadly white
She brought him everywhere she went but something was not right

He was missing both his eyes
Surrounded by a swarm of flies
But he would never tell her lies
For her the man was just right

She called him Winston Fairfield and dressed him up each day
She’d sit him at the chess board and for both of them she’d play
Her mother could not understand, it made her father ill
But something in his gruesome stare it gave her quite the thrill

He was missing both his eyes
Surrounded by a swarm of flies
But he would never tell her lies
For her the man was just right
He was rotting from inside
And smelled of fish and cyanide
But he would never tell her lies
For her the man was just right
