Who knew success would come with messy, nasty strings?
I take these offers, that means more killing.
I sign these contracts, that means I'm willing
to keep on doing bloody, awful, evil things.

No! No! This nightmare must come to an end.
Though it means you'll be broke again and unemployed,
the veg'table must be destroyed.
But then there's Audrey, lovely Audrey.
If life were tawdry and impov'rished as before,
Without my plant, she might not love me anymore
