Lisa and Kate met me at Belcourt Taps in Nashville, approached me after I got off stage and then messaged me to help them rewrite this song. This is what we came up with.

lyrics

For years she watched him eyein'
every girl that walked by him
now it's hit the fan and flyin'
she saw the lipstick on his neck
He swore it was just that once
and he'd win back her trust
but she caught him on the rug
with a young busty brunette
she lost her head
Chorus 1:
She could hear the fat lady singin'
The curtain dropped so fast it's swingin'
He'll be beltin' soprano
at the devil's piano
'cause he's goin' down
six feet under ground
'cause the fat lady's singin' now
Verse 2:
She showed the hussy to the door
said, "Marriage is worth fightin' for"
They made love like never before
Then she played possum while he slept
Sunrise lit the final act
Poisoned pancakes, coffee black
She set the tray upon his lap
and fed him breakfast in bed
Ding dong he's dead
(repeat chorus 1)
Bridge:
Sunday's front page paper read,
"Pancakes and Passion Leave One Man Dead"
If she's sorry it sure don't show
She's chirpin' like a bird down on Death Row.
Chorus 2:
She could hear the fat lady singin'
The curtain dropped so fast it's swingin'
She'll be beltin' soprano
at the devil's piano
'cause she's goin' down
six feet under ground
'cause the fat lady's singin'...
singin' now
