Wretched Old Mildred

Dressed in black in the outside world
But spotless white in the cage
Steely eyes staring down opposition
Mona Lisa smile barely masks her rage

Tyrant cold, sadistic ways, corruption of authority
Her power's absolute
Won't you come on through?

Wretched old Mildred
Wretched old Mildred
Wretched old Mildred
Wicked Nurse Ratched

Capriciously revokes every privilege
Anytime that she is made displeased
Holding every hostage from your cigarettes
To all your food and even toiletries

Now circle 'round for therapy
When humiliation brings humility
Discussion leader dictatorship's the rule

Wretched old Mildred
Wretched old Mildred
Wretched old Mildred
Wicked Nurse Ratched

Medication time is here, now take your Thorazine
From this witch dresses as a nurse
As if, as if for Halloween
Medication time is here. I will do as I am told
I never knew the devil's hands could be
Could be so cold

Tyrant cold, sadistic ways, corruption of authority
Her power's absolute. You won't be leaving soon

Wretched old Mildred
Wretched old Mildred
Wretched old Mildred
Wicked Nurse Ratched

Dressed in black in the outside world
But spotless white in the cage
Steely eyes staring down opposition
Mona Lisa smile barely masks her rage

She's a wretched old Mildred
Wretched old Mildred, wretched old Mildred
Wicked Nurse Ratched
