lyrics

Well you never would have said I was gonna be a killer
I said stick around baby and I’ll give you a thrill
You were lookin’ for a flavor you were tired of vanilla
You were in for the pussy I was in for the kill

Never coulda known I was gonna be your lover
Or a schemer or a Judas or a girl fully grown
The smile on your face when you brought me to your mother
The smile on your face she would never have known

Killin’ ‘em poor killin’ ‘em poor
Send for the lawyer take the letter to the door
I can get another from the grocery store
Killin’ ‘em poor killin’ ‘em poor
Killin’ ‘em poor killin’ ‘em poor
Send for the lawyer take the letter to the door
I can get another from the grocery store
Killin’ ‘em poor killin’ ‘em poor

You wake up in the night you just want it to be over
Wake up in the night you just wanna be free
Sitting like a sausage with the gravy in the clover
Wake up in the night you just gonna see me

You been talkin’ to your friends and I see that you been cryin’
Got you dancing like a puppet and I’m pulling your string
Got you jumpin’ like a fish in the pan where you are frying
Got you like a fly and I’m pullin’ off the wings

Killin’ ‘em poor killin’ ‘em poor
Send for the lawyer take the letter to the door
I can get another from the grocery store
Killin’ ‘em poor killin’ ‘em poor
Killin’ ‘em poor killin’ ‘em poor
Send for the lawyer take the letter to the door
I can get another from the grocery store
Killin’ ‘em poor killin’ ‘em poor
Killin’ ‘em poor killin’ ‘em poor
Send for the lawyer take the letter to the door
I can get another from the grocery store
Killin’ ‘em poor killin’ ‘em poor
