lirik lagu perfectionist – saga
ellery sneed had one great need
to do everything just right
if things were not planned and all done by hand
he would ready himself for a fight
one afternoon while sitting alone
he came to a great realization
when it’s his turn to die, will there be enough time
for plenty of planned preparations
with a few minutes thought his decision was clear
a fate most perfectly neat
not a friend could remain to witness his death
so a terminal wine he would treat
the plan was to hold a very large feast
serving the wine at the end
joining the fun would be everyone
he’d been calling his friend
invitations went out, all guests did arrive
the meal looked a great success
deciding the time he brought out the wine
up stood a familiar guest
“here’s a toast to our gracious host”
said ell’s friend billingford bluffer
“never in my life will i taste but a bite
of a more perfectly planned out supper
