Lyrics:
She was pretty as a flower
He loved her endlessly
She wanted to be free
To dance in the sun
But he wanted to be her only one

He was her good friend that she trusted
When he asked her she didn't think twice
A walk would be nice
The day lovely and warm
What could be the harm?

Chorus:
Well we all know the story
There's heartbreak in the end
When a man says i love you
He can not be just friends

Well he saw her last night with a stranger
To him that just didn't seem fair
Why didn't she care?
He loved her so much
Yet she shrank from his touch

So he asked her to rethink her feelings
Her answer made him feel mean
She slipped so it seems
Her death was a shame
But, there's no one to blame

Chorus

He dreams of her screaming face nightly
His wish is to take his deeds back
Of remorse there's no lack
But once jealousy has begun
It can not be undone

Sad Songs, All Night Long (Murder Ballad 33)

For Sandy's Halloween costume!!!Lyrics:
Well Here's the truth and we all know it
As nature shows its how things grow
Use the knowledge as you see fit
If you get to reap its because you sow
Every single cell does it
With a friend or all alone
Fornication and masturbation
I've heard tell can sure be fun

Its the word 
From all the birds
Cats and dogs agree as one
Bees say its sweeter than honey
Fornication can be fun

It makes you want to dance and sing
For stress relief its the very thing
Flowers bloom in the shining sun
Cuz fornication can be fun!

Sandy Halloween

Lyrics:

She liked whiskey and songs about runnin
He liked dinner on the table by five
She knew someday he'd catch her creepin
Its just a matter of time
Oh yeah, just a matter of time

Down at the poolhall her name had been mentioned
with knowing looks and a smirk or two
He came home early and called out her name
After all what's a man to do
Oh yeah, what's a man to do

There in the bedroom he got what he came for
His lovin wife and his best friend Ray
He laughed out loud at the look on their faces
right before he blew them away
Oh yeah, before he blew them away

Now they're buried in the back 40
His new wife Sadie gets his dinner by five
but he knows someday he'll catch her creepin
Its just a matter of time
Oh yeah, just a matter of time

Ricky Mier on mando and bass.

Murder No. 9

Lyrics:
Livin life with a broken heart
Some days whole and others falling apart
When the pain comes screaming through space and time
I'd do anything to get you out of my mind

Chorus:
That's how it goes
You gotta hide it away so know one knows
How it goes
You better hide it away so know one knows

When sorrow is your constant friend
and your only desire is for the torture to end
Your mind keeps taking you no where fast
Stuck in the middle looking toward the past

Chorus

So smile on the outside and stuff it all down
But the pain keeps rising and your gonna drown
In the secret hardships that you never share
Like when you cry in the night and no one's there

Chorus
