Hell Hath No Fury

Based on several true tales of women fighting back against mysoginistic husbands. I hope you enjoy the music or music video at the end of the enty below:

HELL HATH NO FURY

She sits beneath her juniper trees 

A book of shadows on her knees

Where hell hath no fury as a woman scorned

She’ll make him rue the day he was born

 

She knows that there’s no greater demon

Than a self-righteous soul

With the wrong ideals

Words without feeling

Wheeling and dealing

Till she’s bought and sold     

She’s growing old 

And when she wakes up cold and screaming

There’s no-one there to tell her

She’s just dreaming…

 

She walks beneath her twilit skies

A look of sorrow in her eyes

Where hell hath no fury as a woman spurned

She only smiles when her knife-blade’s turned

 

She knows that she’s no fallen angel

When she unfurls her wings

Songs of hatred she brings

Of hearts for the taking

Breaking and shaking

Till she’s bought their souls

 

She takes control

And when she wakes up cold and weeping

There’s no one there to tell her

She’s still sleeping…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She’s not unkind

And when he wakes to find her crying

There’s no-one there to tell him

He’s now dying….

 

She sits beneath her juniper trees   

Her husband’s head upon her knees

Where hell hath no fury as woman scorned

She made him rue the day he was born…

 

.. beneath her juniper trees

where hell hath no fury

where hell hath no fury

where hell hath no fury ..
