You were so cruel, and it was her house.
You were so cruel, and it was her house.
The way she mounted the staircase… the grace!
No one could say, “I can do that like that, stand back!”

But you were so cruel, and it was her house.
You were so cruel, and it was her house.
Who cracked her favorite death rattle?
Who started snapping all the straps?
An exercise in crowd control; tactile and bold.

Something that never should’ve happened happens.
Something that never should’ve happened happens.
Something that never should’ve happened happens.
Something that never should’ve happened happens.

Oh, you were so cruel, and it was her house.
You were so cruel, and it was her house.
You were so cruel, and it was her house.
You swore before you’d crush those horns
