Masterpiece of catastrophic love
In a small New England town
Ninety-five pages of tragedy
Difficult to put down
La la la la la la la la la la la

Came to light in 1911
Overnight lit-fic classic
Bringing fame to Edith Wharton
And fortune to Scribner's sons
La la la la la la la la la la la

I first read you on my birthday
And again umpteen more times
When will they make you a musical
There have been far worse crimes
La la la la la la la la la la la
