I’m a Killer
Well, I’m near the end and I just ain’t got the time
And I’m wasted and I can’t find my way home
The blue bus is callin’ us
The blue bus is callin’ us
Driver, where you takin’ us
The Magical Mystery Tour
Is coming to take you away
Coming to take you away
Watching I keep waiting still anticipating love
Never hesitating to become the fated ones
Turning and returning to some secret place to hide
Watching in slow motion as you turn to me and say, my love
Take my breath away
Wo wo wo wo, wo wo wo wo
Wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo
My love does it good
Oh, I love, oh, my love
Only my love does it good to me
Wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo
But only love can break your heart
Try to be sure right from the start
Yes only love can break your heart
What if your world should fall apart?
As the pain sweeps through,
Makes no sense for you.
Every thrill is gone.
Wasn’t too much fun at all,
But I’ll be there for you
As the world falls down.
When you try too much you lose control
Pressure rises, and so I’m told
Something’s got to give
High life ecstasy
You might as well live
I can’t see, I can’t speak
I couldn’t take more than another week
Without you, oh no
So I will drink my fill
Till the thrill is you
I don’t ordinarily drink with strangers,
I most usually drink alone.
You were so awfully nice to me,
And I’m so terribly far from home.
Every morning just before breakfast
I don’t want no coffee or tea
Just me and good buddy Weiser
That’s all I ever need
'Cause I drink alone
Yeah, with nobody else
Yeah, you know when I drink alone
I prefer to be by myself
I don’t talk to strangers
Unless they look like you
And smile almost too sweetly,
Disarming me completely
I know all the dangers
In trying something new
Yet I, wanting you madly,
Need all the dangers badly
I want to talk to a stranger tonight
I don’t take waifs and strays back home with me
My bleeding heart does not extend to eternity
Yes I’d have to say I like my privacy, see
Did you know you’re on closed-circuit TV?
So smile at me
Television! The idiot tube
Helps to raise our children as fools
Watch the news, see what they want you to see
Our awareness is limited by network VPs
Moronic sit-coms, one sided news
Alter your feeling, give you conformist views
Why can’t you get that garbage out of your head?
You’re better off to read a good book instead
Hear the sound of music drifting in the aisles
Elevator Prozac stretching on for miles
The music of the future will not entertain
It’s only meant to repress and neutralize your brain
Soul gets squeezed out, edges get blunt
Demographic gives what you want
One of the wonders of the world is going down
It’s going down I know
It’s one of the blunders of the world that no-one cares
No-one cares enough
You play the guitar on the M.T.V.
That ain’t workin’ that’s the way you do it
Money for nothin’ and your chicks for free.
You check out Guitar George, he knows all the chords
Mind he’s strictly rhythm, he doesn’t want to make it cry or sing
They said an old guitar is all he can afford
When he gets up under the lights to play his thing
When I was a little bitty boy
my grandmother bought me a cute little toy
Silver bells hangin’ on a string
she told me it was my ding a ling
The years have gone by too quickly it seems,
I have my own little boy
And yesterday I gave to him
My marvelous little toy:
His eyes nearly popped right out of his head
And he gave a squeal of glee!
Neither one of us knows just what it is
But he loves it just like me!
