Poor Little Rich Girl

Oh, Edith
Lovely Edith
It was all just too wonderful, wasn't it?

Tantric sex, occult rituals, negro music, sensitive criminals
Hookah smoke, a lesbian dalliance, time travel, simply scandalous

A spell as long as the century
You really shook the pillars of Heaven and Hell

Released from the wheel of Karma on your 99th birthday
With a baptismal funeral in the filthy Ganges river
Your final heartbeats cracking the plaster walls of your dingy hotel room
You knew exactly what you were doing, didn't you?
