A Masters In Reverse Psychology
Murder By Death Lyrics

Put the bullet in the barrell
Load the gun with a bullet

Take the safety off
Release the safety lock on the gun

Keep shootin' at the devil in the moonlight
Keep fighting against the evil forces in the darkness

Put it all on black
Take a big risk and bet everything on one outcome

Till your luck comes back
Keep going until you become lucky again

We're all waitin' for the end
All of us are expecting an end to this ordeal

What kind of finish will he send
What type of ending will occur

These hands made of splinters
These hands which are rough and rugged

Keep knockin' back the whiskey sours
Keep drinking alcohol to forget the troubles

I've got a few more days to go and
I have a limited time left

I've got another crust of bread somewhere holed up
I have some more food i.e. bread, kept in a hidden place

Waiting in this
Waiting for something

Is this what's left of the house
Is this all that is left from where I started

Fill the lamp up with kerosene and toss the rest in the hall
Fill the lamp with some flammable liquid and dispose of the rest of it in the hallway

Just coat the walls and strike the cigarette
Cover the walls with the flammable liquid and ignite it with a cigarette lighter

When you hear them coming
As soon as you hear them approach

We'll pray for them and stay with them
We'll stay with them and pray for them

Till the poor little bastards die hand in hand
Until the unfortunate people die together holding hands

We'll never forget them when they're gone
We'll always remember them even after they've left

So keep the girls inside
Make sure the girls are safe inside

Of the little church
Inside the small church

With their bruised knees
With their injured knees

On the pews
On the benches
