Goodnight Socialite Lyrics
In the darkest corner of the house
I found a body there
Cold and stiff
Spine in a twist
She left a note,
It read like so:
My dearest one,
Here's what you've done.
I've got your knife inside my back
I've got your rope around my neck
I feel the poison in my veins
Corrode and eat away my brains
I've told you fifteen dozen times
And that's one hundred eighty times
If I can't have you
Then no-one can.
She was an honest girl
(Never told a lie)
Raised with the finest things
(Far too rich to die)
A silver spoon
Gold diamond rings
The sainted mother,
The benefactor,
Of the inheritance,
That I was after
She's got a feeling,
That I'll get even, and
If I can't have you
Then no-one can
I've got your knife inside my back
I've got your rope around my neck
I feel the poison in my veins
Corrode and eat away my brains
I've told you fifeteen dozen times
And that's one hundred eighty times
If I can't have you (oh oh oh)
Then no-one can.
I found a body there
Cold and stiff
Spine in a twist
It read like so:
My dearest one,
Here's what you've done.
I've got your rope around my neck
I feel the poison in my veins
Corrode and eat away my brains
I've told you fifteen dozen times
And that's one hundred eighty times
If I can't have you
Then no-one can.
(Never told a lie)
Raised with the finest things
(Far too rich to die)
Gold diamond rings
The benefactor,
Of the inheritance,
That I was after
That I'll get even, and
If I can't have you
Then no-one can
I've got your rope around my neck
I feel the poison in my veins
Corrode and eat away my brains
I've told you fifeteen dozen times
And that's one hundred eighty times
If I can't have you (oh oh oh)
Then no-one can.

It's about a girl who kills her ex-boyfriend because she can't have him. The narrator finds the body in a big house, the girl leaves a note next to the body reading "My dearest one, Here's what you've done.
I've got your knife inside my back I've got your rope around my neck I feel the poison in my veins Corrode and eat away my brains I've told you fifeteen dozen times And that's one hundred eighty times If I can't have you Then no-one can."
So basically, the "nice, wealthy girl" was actually psycho yup
