One fine day
I answered the phone
It was my girlfriend inviting
Me to her home

I met her father
He cooked us a meal
It was a pleasant evening
But i began to feel

A presence, a shadow
Eyes on my neck
Her father looked nervous
I began to suspect

A secret, a lie
Someone was missing
When no one was talking
I heard a strange hissing

I felt deep down that
Something was not right
I made my excuses
I said good night

One year later
At our wedding reception
I finally uncovered
The horrible deception

My mother in law is a scorpion
My uncle fainted, my guests all fled
Woah woah
My mother in law is a scorpion
My brother is crying, the priest is dead
Woah woah

Family dinners are not fun
When you're terrified of getting stung

My mother in law is a scorpion
Did you know that scorpions don't lay eggs?
Woah woah
My mother in law is a scorpion
I said she was fat, she paralysed me legs
Woah woah
