[Intro: News Reporter]

Law enforcement authorities have arrested one of the most notorious contract killers in state history. A self-employed Bergen County man is behind bars charged with five murders, and prosecutors are investigating his involvement in dozens more

[Verse 1: Genocide]

I was born in the state of New Jersey

Never had money and my clothes always dirty

My father was a drunk, every day he would hurt me

Stampede me and my brother with no mercy

At thirteen I was picked on often

The project boys had me walking with caution

I got bullied so much that it scarred me

So one night I waited to ambush Charley

So as he walked up, I hit him in a fit of rage

He never woke up so I didn't hesitate

Took him to the bridge, pushed him in the river

Didn't feel nothing for a cold-hearted killer

This event started a history of violence

I became a hit-man with mafia clients

A cold reputation, killed with no compassion

Show me the money and I make shit happen

[Hook x2]

No heart, no soul, and I'm cold as ice

Anybody want to fight, they will pay the price

You don't want no beef, you don't know my life

I'm an assassin, The Iceman, ready to strike

[Verse 2]

When I was eighteen I had a bad temper

Killed so many I can't even remember

Used to walk around the west side of Manhattan

Anybody set me off and my gun clappin'

Around this period I met the Italian

I went from the street to the Gambino mansion

A contract killer, I started to make dough

The number one enforcer for Roy DeMeo

I knock at your door, better pay your account

Or come for a walk at the Gemini Lounge

(It was a house of horror) That's where you get hit

And your body gets dumped down a bottomless pit

See I like to experiment with all kinds of methods

(Cyanide poison) And various weapons

A Glock in my jacket, a knife in my right hand

Got no remorse you can call me The Iceman

[Hook x2]

No heart, no soul, and I'm cold as ice

Anybody want to fight, they will pay the price

You don't want no beef, you don't know my life

I'm an assassin, The Iceman, ready to strike

[Verse 3]

I'm a vet, you can check on my stats

Never fuck around, I honor my contracts

You can name it, I did it, the most evil acts

Even tie you up in a cave, eaten alive by rats

I remember one time, with a hypodermic needle

Jabbed him in the chest and he died so peaceful

I'm an enemy, live life in apathy

Feel no pity, only care about my family

For over thirty years I was feared and respected

Never on the radar and never detected

In '86 I became to intrepid

Made one mistake and my name was suspected

I was set up by an undercover agent

Caught so brazen, I didn't smell the bacon

My face on the pavement, five men pinned me

The judge said "how do you plead", I said "Guilty!"

[Hook x2]

No heart, no soul, and I'm cold as ice

Anybody want to fight, they will pay the price

You don't want no beef, you don't know my life

I'm an assassin, The Iceman, ready to strike

[Outro: Richard Kuklinsky and Interviewer]

You killed more than 200 people

At one part of my life I killed people for nothing. Just for somebody to look at me wrong I would kill 'em
