Lyrics
Elizabeth, so sought after
So beautiful, so admired
A life cut short, a body severed
Tuesday morning tragedy
1947 media sensation
Might have been one in ten
maybe yet another
Raven hair, ice blue eyes
Ruby lips, black attire
Opportunity arose
Never fade to obscurity
Masterpiece laid on display
What a violent destiny
Savage excitement
Macabe massacre
Her nude body
Cut in two halves
Drained of all blood
Then washed clean
An actress wannabe
Last seen at the Builtmore hotel
Left to meet a gentleman
Never to be seen again
39th & Norton
Overgrown with weeds
Run down dark Hollywood
Inherent scene
A woman with a secret ashamed
Nobody could ever know
A driven girl playing the spider
A tease unable
Made promises that she could never ever keep
