WHEN SHE WOKE UP AND FOUND 
THAT HER DREAM OF LOVE WAS GONE, 
MADAM, 
SHE RAN TO THE MAN 
WHO HAD LED HER SO FAR ASTRAY, 
AND FROM UNDER HER VELVET GOWN 
SHE DREW A GUN AND SHOT HER LOVER MAN DOWN, 
MADAM, 
MISS OTIS REGRETS SHE'S UNABLE TO LUNCH TODAY. 
 
WHEN THE MOB CAME AND GOT HER 
AND DRAGGED HER FROM THE JAIL, 
MADAM, 
THEY STRUNG HER UPON 
THE OLD WILLOW ACROSS THE WAY, 
AND THE MOMENT BEFORE SHE DIED 
SHE LIFTED UP HER LOVELY HEAD AND CRIED, 
MADAM, 
MISS OTIS REGRETS SHE'S UNABLE TO LUNCH TODAY
