《Butchers》歌词

[00:00:00] Ben grew up to be the butcher not by choice

[00:00:03] It's just the lot in life he found

[00:00:08] But he makes a decent living

[00:00:09] Feeds his family and the people of the town

[00:00:15] But there's no dreams brought to fruition

[00:00:16] Just a gradual attrition

[00:00:18] The decayed scraps of ambition he once carved by hand

[00:00:22] But there's no time for regrets

[00:00:23] It's not as bad as it appears

[00:00:25] He's got a lucrative career

[00:00:27] But he never gets the bloodstains off his hands

[00:00:43] A killer frequents bars on Ladies＇

[00:00:45] Night with a steely-eyed command

[00:00:50] But he ain't out cruising hookers and he ain't no shady looker

[00:00:53] He's a charming handsome man

[00:00:57] His voice says ladies but his mind is thinking bitches

[00:01:00] But his pitch is just too much for most of them to withstand

[00:01:04] He tells them jokes and he gets them all in stitches

[00:01:07] And it goes off without hitches

[00:01:09] Till he tries to get the bloodstains off his hands

[00:01:43] Nothing good comes easy

[00:01:44] Isn't that what you would have me to believe

[00:01:49] For every positive endeavor there is a dark side we must weather

[00:01:53] You will see yeah you will see

[00:02:07] All the coroners and corpsmen and the slaughterhouse foremen

[00:02:11] It's just there job five days a week

[00:02:13] Please try and understand

[00:02:14] It's their lot to get through it

[00:02:16] They know someone's got to do it

[00:02:18] And try not to misconstrue it

[00:02:19] When they try to wash the bloodstains off their hands

[00:02:25] Now she's had seven years of happiness with a boy

[00:02:27] She's always claimed to have adored

[00:02:32] And there's fewer who've been truer

[00:02:34] But as of late she finds herself a little bored

[00:02:39] She tells him she still loves him

[00:02:41] And has only good thoughts of him

[00:02:43] And the times they've had and hopes

[00:02:45] That it'll help him understand

[00:02:46] When she runs her knife straight through him

[00:02:48] It's the only way to do them

[00:02:50] She's the winner of the game

[00:02:52] But she'll never get the bloodstains off her hands

[00:02:56] In the end they all fall just the same

[00:02:59] But she'll never get the bloodstains off her hands

[00:03:03] He will have some cheburery big

[00:03:06] But she'll never get the bloodstains off her hands
