Eight O'clock
It was early in the nightAbout eight o'clock sharpWhen I heard the strangest screamIt was short and narrowJust a sigh in a shadowMust have been done with silk
My man was long goneAnd so was the kingdomNow they came to take the queen
The last lock crackedAnd broke like a matchThe crowd came running inSaid "don't go for the windowThat poison you won't swallowAlive we take the queen !"
Well men, hear me speakThings ain't what they seemFor this queen too was locked in
