Текст пісні
Deeply into bankruptcy at last it can be told!
A witch and an assassin hatch a plan to get some gold
They hire several guardsmen, but if all goes as they plan
They'll never have to pay them, they'll be slaughtered to a man!
Three holes in their contract
Termination for no cause
No workman's compensation
And no life insurance clause
Disguised as honest women, then, they haggle and cajole
A payment from a businessman whose first and foremost goal
Is vengeance for a daughter lost in one of the attacks
He figures he'll deduct it when the King collects His tax
Three aren't what they seem
The guard who guards a secret plot
The lady who's no lady
And the maiden who is not
One among the guardsmen drips with gems of costly size
The witch perceives he also wears a magical disguise
You might think this alone would be a giveaway right there
But they're too busy plotting out their strategy to care
Three things are no fun
The answer right before your eyes
A poker hand that's folded
And a fight where no one dies
From ambush, as expected, bandits swarm to claim their prize
The maiden has a mercenary gleam in her cold eyes
The lady does her nails while all her guardsmen's blood is spilled
They cannot prove their innocence except by being killed
Three things are most perilous
A victim with a grin
A secret you're not in on
And a test you cannot win
The maiden watches helplessly throughout the whole attack
Then hacks up half the hoodlums with one hand behind her back
The lady makes a gesture and the other half are fried
The guardsmen gesture back as they lie dying on the side
Three things never count on when your life is on the line
A sword with rust
A bow with cracks
And a woman's sense of time
The witch decides what shape the traitor's punishment will be
Her positive self-image is revealed for all to see!
