about

"Picture a female vigilante who exclusively targets other serial killers."

"The new song 'The Devil's Due' narrates the story of a female vigilante who confronts and takes down Ted Bundy."

Murder Ballad
A little ditty about a man named Ted.

lyrics

THE DEVIL'S DUE

IN THE BACK BOOTH OBSCURED BY THE SHADOWS
WATCHING ALL THE PRETTY GIRLS WALK BY
PLOTTING YOUR NEXT MOVE
I FOLLOW YOU INTO THE ALLEY
AS YOU SLIP AWAY INTO THE NIGHT
I ASK YOU FOR A LIGHT
YOU ASK FOR “HELP.”
YOUR ARM IS BROKEN IN A SLING
YOUR CAR IS DEAD AND YA NEED A JUMP
“SORRY MAN, BUT I CAN OFFER YOU A RIDE.”

CHORUS:
TURN YOUR LAMP DOWN LOW

“DON’T WORRY TED
WHAT’S WRONG?
FEELING OUT OF SORTS?
ARE THOSE CUFFS TOO TIGHT?
HERE LET ME HELP YOU
IT’S GONNA BE A LONG, LONG NIGHT."
WHEN I’M DONE YA GONNA BEG ME
ON YOUR KNEES
CALLING OUT TO GOD.
BUT NO ONE WILL EVER HEAR YOUR CRIES


CHORUS:
TURN YOUR LAMP DOWN LOW
YA GOTTA GIVE THE DEVIL HER DUE
