WELL, SHE'S MURDER
MURDER IN THE FIRST DEGREE
MY GIRL'S MURDER
MURDER IN THE FIRST DEGREE
YES, I CALL MY BABY MURDER
'CAUSE SHE'S ALWAYS KILLING ME
I WORK HARD EACH DAY
TRYING TO PAY THE RENT
BUT, WHEN I GET MY PAYCHECK
SHE'S ALREADY GOT IT SPENT
SHE'S MURDER
MURDER IN THE FIRST DEGREE
THAT'S WHY I CALL MY BABY MURDER
'CAUSE SHE'S ALWAYS KILLING ME

MURDER IN THE FIRST DEGREE
YES, I CALL MY BABY MURDER
'CAUSE SHE'S ALWAYS KILLING ME
*Guitar Solo
WELL, MY BABY'S LIKE A BLOOD HOUND
SHE CAN SMELL THE COLOR GREEN
SHE COMES TO ME BEGGING
LIKE I'M AN ATM MACHINE
SHE'S MURDER
MURDER IN THE FIRST DEGREE
YES, I CALL MY BABY MURDER
'CAUSE SHE'S ALWAYS KILLING ME
OH SHE'S MURDER
MURDER IN THE FIRST DEGREE
YEAH, SHE'S MURDER
MURDER IN THE FIRST DEGREE
I CALL MY BABY MURDER
'CAUSE SHE'S ALWAYS KILLING ME
