lyrics

I’m an up and coming killer

I’ve had a pretty good life
With just a few bumps along the way
Two kids, a dog, and a wife
A steady job and a 401k

For most folks this is enough
But I have a higher calling
And I really think that I got the stuff
Though you may find this appalling
I’ve decided that
Yeah, I’ve decided that

I’m an up-n-comin’ killer
I’ve been learnin’ the ropes and the nunchucks too
Ooo I’m pimpin’ out my kill room
Cuz I believe in myself
You’re gonna see me on the evening news

Studying the work of the greats
Gacy, Dahmer, and Bundy
Workin’ so hard to create
My modus operandi
For instance, how the heck you pose a body
To symbolize your hate for your mother
Who locked you up cuz you were naughty
And not as pretty as your fucking brother

So I’ve decided that
Yeah I’ve decided that

I’m an up-n-comin’ killer
I’ve been learning the ropes and the nunchucks too
Oooo I’m pimpin’ out my kill room
Cuz I believe in myself
You’re gonna see me on the evening news, news

It’s just a matter of time
Before the wife drops a dime
I wipe the fingerprints clean
But leave my wallet at the crime scene

(Oh well, nobody’s perfect!)

I’m an up-n-comin’ killer
I’ve been learning the ropes and the nunchucks too
Oooo I’m pimpin’ out my kill room
Cuz I believe in myself
You’re gonna see me on the evening
I’m an up-n-comin’ killer
I’ve been learning the ropes and that new kungfu
Oooo I’m pimpin’ out my kill room
Cuz I believe in myself
You’re gonna see me on the evening news
