With a full quiver of arrows and an ivory bow
Cupid aims for pure and true love, as you know
But miss Effie Moore was cheated and wronged
Her heart was ready for love and she had longed
But Cupid knew that her beau Edward Malone
Was meant to marry pretty miss Lucy Stone
In the woods Effie found the wandering winged child
Her anger boiled over and she planned something wild
She called his name and offered chocolate cake
She called his name and offered chocolate cake
He was sweet and trusting, that was his mistake
With her letter opener that looks like a long sword
She cut his neck and he died without a last word
Effie was pleased, she took his arrows and the ivory bow
A knock at Lucy's door had her beaming a glow
She was surprised to see Effie on the other side
Miss Moore shot Lucy Stone with an arrow, on the floor she lied
She walked Brewer St. to the Malone home to kill the sap
In the parlor she found Edward asleep taking a catnap
Effie whispered in his ear, "You will never again wrong me"
His eyes opened and a scream came out "You are crazy Effie!"
She took the ivory bow and began to bash in his face
Edward's blood stained Effie's white dress of French lace
Pleased with how well it all turned out, she went on her way
At the Malone boy's funeral she was the only one in gray
Then it was put together and the cops came for Effie Moore
She was missing, some say she was now living by the sea shore
