Elvis Costello - Kinder Murder lyrics
Your rating:
Here in the bar, the boys like to have fun There's a wager lost and an argument won There's a stone-washed damsel on a junk food run It's a kinder murder There's a ladder to heaven from a battered stiletto Spitting out the words that he put into her mouth See her in silhouette going down south It's a kinder murder It's a kinder murder She could have kept her knees together Should have kept her mouth shut It's a kinder murder It's a kinder murder Jimmy took her down to the perimeter fence He was back in half an hour, he said he left her senseless Then he went back to his regiment It's a kinder murder The officer said it has to be denied There's a tear-stained would-be teenage bride All the family pride in the little ram-rider It's a kinder murder It's a kinder murder She could have kept her knees together Should have kept her mouth shut It's a kinder murder It's a kinder murder The child went missing and the photo fit his face Dishonoured Jimmy just read about the case He said that he was just taking up space It's a kinder murder Jimmy took his best friend's keys from the pile on the table in a flash He was dreaming of the pigskin seats and the walnut dash The knickers in her handbag and the one false eyelash It's a kinder murder It's a kinder murder She could have kept her knees together Could have kept her mouth shut It's a kinder murder [4x]
