Dorthea's Dead Folks Home

Dorthea had a bad place that was a disgrace

a home for old people for a monthly rate

with the help of her son

the old folks' home she'd run

and things seemed quite normal

but something was wrong

The people that graced old Dorthea's place

had no friends or family that she'd have to face

so she thought of a scam

her son the right hand man

a very demented and morbid plan

The old folks' social security checks

to Dorthea were sent

she was allowed to cash

tenants' checks for their rent

but the tenants were dead

all poisoned to death

so they wouldn't have to be

cared for or fed

With the help of her son

buried one by one

in Dorthea's yard

'til someone caught on

Dorthea did plead guilty for her deeds

Dorthea's dead folks home

is now history
