“The Ballad of Delilah Morreo”
Written by Isabella Bunny Bennett
Spine: Well the blood runs thicker than the water for Delilah Morreo
Rabbit: the daughter of a mad confider, bat and beast and wolf and spider
Hatchworth: Never had a chance at all to save her precious mortal soul
Spine: The reaper's hold would not let go, for poor Delilah Morreo
Rabbit: Two men of equal brilliant minds enchant Delilah Morreo
Hatchworth: Her love for science was a curse, she wilted and was drawn by hearse
Spine: One suitor grew obsessed, he would restore her pretty little soul
Rabbit: Awoke she did with spectral glow, the corpse Delilah Morreo
Spine: Horrified
Rabbit: Yes, the poor dear tried to make things right
Hatchworth: But thirst did call
Spine: suitors did fall
Rabbit: The woman's grave was said and done
Hatchworth: and yet she lived
Spine: The darkness comes
(Chorus)
Been dead and gone, but not for long (I’m gonna getcha)
You’ll hear the howling of my song (I’m gonna getcha)
Rabbit: Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Ha, Ah-ha-ha-ah
Hatchworth: No beats except of greasy bat wings for Delilah Morreo
Spine: But heartless girls they still can love, befriending rats and fallen doves
Rabbit: And then she found out there were more just like her own forgotten soul
Hatchworth: But they were bad, they had to go, said Delilah Morreo
Spine: Vampiric chants and alchemy dabbled Delilah Morreo
Rabbit: She thought she might have cured the spell, but things again did not go well
Hatchworth: Instead of needing to drink life, she hungered for some hell-bound souls
Spine: From then on out, she ate her foes, Miss Delilah Morreo
Rabbit: Her fate was sealed, the poor dear tried to make things right
Hatchworth: A new thirst called
Spine: Vampires fall
Rabbit: The woman's creed and code were true
Hatchworth: Sleep tight tonight
Spine: her teeth will chew
(Chorus)
Ah, break it down
Rabbit: Well the boogeyman fears the wraith Delilah Morreo
And Death and her are friends now no matter where it is she goes
So all the Vampires should hide from this lady
This side of the netherworld, she’s the baddest in Hades
Hatchworth: All the sugar skulls sing her praise, Delilah Morreo
Spine: There ain't no ghost or specter that’ll stand with her toe to toe
Rabbit: The demon boys love her, it turns the Banshees green
Spine: But there ain’t no man for this Vampire Queen
(Chorus)
