The deliverer of death is the Absinthe Fairy,
Yet amidst the ugliness of death is your beauty.
Oh treacherous fay of the untimely death,
You take ones life before it's their day.
A mighty seductress you are of the young men,
You tempt them until you get their soul to sin.
The beauty of your skin is like bait on a hook,
A young man will glare and desire after one look.
Then he is lured into the greatest of woe,
He's trapped from the wild seed he did sow.
Forever entangled in the trap you set,
Like trying to free oneself from a net.
