Laced Fate.

The silver platter is polished to a shine

Reflecting a face that used to be mine

Before you decided that I was just glass

Something to break while you watched the days pass

But the dust has been cleared and the linens are pressed

And I’ve put your favorite vintage to the test

You like things orderly, you like things neat

So I’ve made sure your downfall is perfectly sweet.

​

Adjusting the lace, smoothing the fold

Doing exactly what I was told

But the eyes in the mirror are sharper than steel

Waiting for you to enjoy your last meal.

​(Chorus)

They say that revenge is best served cold

On a fine china plate, embroidered in gold

With a bow in my hair and a wink in my eye

I’m here to kiss all your kingdom goodbye

A little bit of poison, a whole lot of lace

I’m wiping the smirk right off of your face

Style in the shadow, death in the shade

Revenge is best served by a sexy maid.

​

I’m fluffing the pillows while you lose your breath

A master of chores and a master of death

You never noticed the girl in the hall

You were too busy feeling so ten-feet tall

But I’ve seen the secrets you hide in the drawer

And I don’t think you’ll need them much anymore

The tea has been steeped and the curtains are drawn

You won't even notice when I'm finally gone.

​

It’s the quiet ones who know where the bodies are kept

Who scrub out the stains while the rest of you slept

I’ve handled your dirt, I’ve carried your pride

Now I’m just tidying the wreckage inside.

​

They say that revenge is best served cold

On a fine china plate, embroidered in gold

With a bow in my hair and a wink in my eye

I’m here to kiss all your kingdom goodbye

A little bit of poison, a whole lot of lace

I’m wiping the smirk right off of your face

Style in the shadow, death in the shade

Revenge is best served by a sexy maid.

The house is spotless.

The master is still.

I’ve finished my duties with time left to kill.

Heel-click on the marble, a snap of the fan

I think I’ll go find a much better man.

Service with a smile.
