Forgive me for posting one of my own compositions but I think this is the thread for it.

THE CHAINSAW KILLER'S LAMENT
(It Seemed to Make Sense at the Time)

I came home from work a little early
And I found a strange car parked outside my door
I found my wife drinking wine in the bedroom
With a stranger I had never seen before
He was wearing my new bathrobe, stretched across the bed
My wife jumped up with nothing on at all
I didn't scream I didn't yell, I just went out to the shed
And I come back with my big McCullach chain saw

chorus:
I guess I should have used better judgment
And foreseen the consequences of my crime
In retrospect I must concede,
It really was a heinous deed
But it seemed to make sense at the time
Yes it seemed to make sense at the time

I put the severed limbs into a trash bag
It's a good thing that I buy the hefty kind
And as I drove I threw the dead meat out the window
I did my best to leave the past behind
Then I stopped in for a burger but before I could even swallow
Police came and dragged me from the scene
I guess I wasn't hard to catch, all they had to do was follow
The trail I left of livers, hearts, and spleens

Chorus

"Society's to blame" said my lawyer
"Nobody ever taught him right from wrong."
But the judge did not agree and he sentenced me to life
I don't think I can stay in jail that long
Then the judge glared down at me and asked me what I had to say
So I suggested something he could eat
And in all the confusion I just grabbed exhibit A
And turned that jury into luncheon meat

chorus
