"Madeline"


(Sung loosely to the tune of "Oliver.")

Madeline, Madeline
Has ever, before, an inquisitor tortured more?
Assassins quake and shiver: their terrified minds reel
At the dreadful approach of those clicking heels-
Knowing it's Death's Handmaiden, Madeline.
Madeline, Madeline
Catacomb smile as she reviews Operatives' files.
Operations doesn't have the slightest suspicion or clue
About her end game; but, she's so devious, neither would you
Because she's disturbing and enigmatic Madeline.
Madeline, Madeline
Like an ancient doll, is cracked-from family members she's whacked.
She sees past Operation's blind spots and Michael's blank stare-
Manipulating everyone with calculated, dispassionate care-
To what unspeakable end, no one knows: she's just being Madeline.
Madeline, Madeline
If, someday, she's your predator, it won't help you to pray.
No mistake slips past her and no details are lost.
Does her smile conceal passions or permafrost?
Nothing is certain, transparent, or clear-after all, she's Madeline.
