In strictest confidence
He let me know
Everybody thought
He was paranoid
The good friend told me
He suspected an affair
Between the lawyer's wife
And the mayor
Mrs Malloy said
In a hurried whisper
You didn't hear it from me
But it was my sister
It's a secret
You cannot tell
If word got out
There'd be hell
If two people know something
The only way nothing will be said
Is if one is stricken mute
And the other ends up dead
