Beauty Queen Lyrics


Oh Susanna Beauty Queen


She was a beauty queen
Strapped to a cold machine
Pretty face, but her eyes were mean
From all she had seen

Crowds all came out to cheer
Buy souvenirs and drink their beer
And laugh so loud, so they could not hear
Her dying screams

"Mercy, show no mercy
for, my friends, I would do it all again
Mercy, show no mercy
Flip the switch and count backwards from 10"

They made sure she was good and gone
Cold, grey, and all alone
Switched off the lights
Then they drove on home
To their families

Switched off the lights
Then they drove on home
To their families
