A Bitter Garden

When an unsuspecting Mister
Found his Mrs., and he kissed her
Unaware, his bride's twin sister
Was an evil, wicked Witch

It's no insult; I'm not kidding
A true Witch, I am admitting
Though to insult would be fitting
Such a mean, cold-hearted ~~BITC~~... Witch.

See, the bride was kind and giving
But the Witch was unforgiving
From the shadow, she was living
She just couldn't get a man

Now a gorgeous bride and venue
Springtime wedding on the menu
But before I will continue
You should know what sparked her plan...

Long ago, the Witch got jealous

As her sister got more fellas

She grew wicked and rebellious
Finally, she had enough

And the trend began appearing
As her sister started fearing
For her men kept disappearing
Every time she fell in love

Brewing hatred from her power

Wicked Witch spent every hour
On a spell to grow a flower
From some very special seeds

On the night of famous pretense
When October came to its end
She would lure her sister's boyfriends

To fulfill her garden needs.

Without any hesitation

She would sentence their damnation

filled with pride in her creation

Of her garden's secret doom.

Sealing fate at first detection

Of her sister's felt affection

Grew the Witch's great collection

Trapping men within a bloom.

Let's fast forward to that venue
Springtime wedding on the menu
Witch most eager to continue

As she gazes at his ring

Halloween, when spell has reason

She must wait 'til planting season

Then the Witch will find it pleasing

When that Mister blooms in spring.
