《The Song of the Assassin》歌词

[00:00:00] The Song Of The Assassin - Stephin Merritt

[00:00:02] My son it's important to remember people

[00:00:09] When they're gone

[00:00:12] One can set aside an hour or two for them

[00:00:19] Oh the red and purple men were rivals at court

[00:00:23] The red one thought of life as a violent sport

[00:00:26] Where the losing guy deserves to die

[00:00:36] So he hired an assassin to do the deed

[00:00:40] But an honest man can't be killed for greed

[00:00:43] (Heaven does not like preemptive strike )

[00:00:53] But the killer had an order

[00:00:55] That he would not dare disobey

[00:00:57] So he found an oak tree

[00:01:00] Where he could bash his head

[00:01:03] And now he's dead
