The Tim Version Lyrics

Murder Lyrics

If I could get away with murder there'd be no more need for war
No kid would need go hungry, there'd be no such thing as poor
A love of friends and family would likely stay my hand,
While love of money'd likely be a mark of death for any man

But I can't get away with anything, for all I've ever tried
My conscience will not let me commit moral suicide
But I've looked into the eyes of folks who would and often will
They do the types of things that make me wanna kill

If I could get away with murder like so many often do
There'd be no CEOs or politicians lying to me or you
Every person held accountable for every wicked end
Would have to justify their actions or I'd turn a gun on them

But I can't get away with anything, for all I've ever tried
My conscience will not let me commit moral suicide
But I've looked into the eyes of folks who would and often will
They do the types of things that make me wanna kill

100,000,000 casualties of both the World Wars
All the folks who lost their lives on Roman soldiers' swords
The Wounded Knee and My Lai massacres, the Night of the Long Knives
Would have nothing on the body counts if I started taking lives
All the rivers would run red and all the bodies they would spoil
And all evidence of things I'd done get buried in the soil
And for all the justice I'd reign down on my killing spree,
It'd be just a little while 'til someone turns their gun on me
