Murder Ballad Lyrics

When she tells me that she's gonna kill me

It's so easy to follow her down

With a winning smile

Little crocodile

Now it's night and we're hitting the town

When she tells me that she could outrun me

As she eats with her delicate hands

I'm a petit jouet

I'm a duck flambé

Now we're dancing along to the band

When she beckons me drink of my water

There isn't a doubt in my mind

She would do me in

Without much chagrin

If she feels like i'm wasting her time

It's a headache today, a toothache tomorrow

A slip-up on sunday that might end it all

Stain on the carpet, a telephone ringing says

Come to me, come when i call

And i have a wild love

She sings like a bird

She is a flaw on the face of the sun

And she's a reflection of everyone

When she tells me that she has ambition

It pains me to know what she means

There have been a few

Who tried to subdue her;

They all disappeared last spring

When she tells me she's feeling coquettish

I know better than stand in her way

She would drain the skin

That you're standing in

To remind you you've nothing to say

When she promises me that she loves me

I hope that she means she'll be quick

It's a sweet charade

That i bought and paid for

The carrot i trade for the stick

It's a headache today, a toothache tomorrow

A fly on the window that might end it all

Creak on the staircase, a voice in my head saying

Come to me, come when i call

And i have a wild love

She sings like a bird

She is a flaw on the face of the sun

And she's a reflection of every

Come to me

Come to me

Come to me

Come
