Murder By Numbers Lyrics

Murder By Numbers lyrics

Once that you've decided on a killing
First you make a stone of your
heart
And if you find that your hands are still willing
Then you can turn
a murder into art

There really isn't any need for bloodshed
You just
do it with a little more finesse
If you can slip a tablet into someone's
coffee
Then it avoids an awful lot of mess

It's murder by numbers one
two three
It's as easy to learn as your ABC
Murder by numbers one two
three
It's as easy to learn as your ABC

Now if you have a taste for
this experience
And you're flushed with your very first success
Then you
must try a twosome or a threesome
And you'll find your conscience bothers
you much less

Because murder is like anything you take to
It's a
habit-forming need for more and more
You can bump off every member of your
family
And anybody else you find a bore

Because it's murder by
numbers one two three
It's as easy to learn as your ABC
Murder by numbers
one two three
It's as easy to learn as your ABC

Now you can join the
ranks of the illustrious
In history's great dark hall of fame
All our
greatest killers were industrious
At least the ones that we all know by
name

But you can reach the top of your profession
If you become the
leader of the land
For murder is the sport of the elected
And you don't
need to lift a finger of your hand

Because it's murder by numbers one
two three
It's as easy to learn as your ABC
Murder by numbers one two
three
It's as easy to learn as your A B C D E
