The Lyrics

With all these Norman Bates parodies lately... I think Hannibal Lecter's feeling a little left out.
Last night as I got home
about a half past ten
there was a woman I thought I knew
being eaten by another man.

I kept my cool, I ain't no fool.
Let me tell you what happened then:
I hit the bricks and I ran out
and I ain't going back again!

She's steak for Lecter, Maria.
Poured dressing on my wife.
Now I won't be coming home.
Gotta save my own life.

She's steak for Lecter, Maria.
Poured dressing on my wife.
'Twas no way I could protect her.
Gotta save my own life.

She'd been many things, but most of all
a good cook of dinners to me.
At times like those I should have known
a dangerous guest we'd see.
Was I wrong to invite
that new friend into her life?
Turned back, and, whoa, hey!
He just cost me a wife.

She's steak for Lecter, Maria.
Poured dressing on my wife.
Now I won't be coming home.
Gotta save my own life.

She's steak for Lecter, Maria.
Poured dressing on my wife.
'Twas no way I could protect her.
Gotta save my own life.

When a man loves a woman
it's hard to understand:
"The way to his heart's through his stomach"
is an expression that should be banned.
I never really noticed
those teeth that flashed at me.
It just so happens I'm free tonight.
But free is something he shouldn't be!

She's steak for Lecter, Maria.
Poured dressing on my wife.
Now I won't be coming home.
Gotta save my own life.

She's steak for Lecter, Maria.
Poured dressing on my wife.
'Twas no way I could protect her.
Gotta save my own life.
