The Ballad Of Robert William Pickton

Rating: 5.0

Little Willie Pickton the butcher from BC,
killed six and twenty hookers and fed them to family.
He ground them up for sausage and passed the meat around,
he gave it to his family and his friends in town.

He cut their heads open and stuffed their hands inside.
This is what he did when these women died.
In Little Willie's slaughterhouse, he'd grind the meat each day,
Then he'd add a little pork to make it sweet they say.

A.22 revolver with a silencer was found.
In Little Willie's trailer lying on the ground,
With a dildo on the barrel tied real tight,
so it can be fired silent in the night.

Little Willie Pickton the butcher from BC,
killed six and twenty hookers and fed them to family.
