Killer 歌詞

All you young girls come in every Friday night And you smile at me as if you know me to be kind When to see your pain could be all that I crave I could've been a killer in my day You think that when a man comes of age That he magically sets aside his bitterness and rage? Well, to tell you the truth wouldn't be such a shame I could've been a killer in my day Should I haul you up by the collar of your coat So close you can smell every last gin on my breath And spit words of fury just to illustrate my rage? I could've been a killer in my day If I sat down with an evil man I'm sure I would find The same cruel thoughts, they have all crossed my mind And it's only my decisions let these impulses lay I could've been a killer in my day I took a desperate stranger in my house for a stay And he stole my lady before he stole away I'd've given anything to have made that man pay I could've been a killer in my day Well I've come this far down my own road Every step is one that I've taken alone And as you enter life that's how you leave - on your own So it matters not what you say I could've been a killer in my day (Come this far, I will get there, come this far on my own)
