[Verse 1]

To the one true God above:

Here is my prayer -

Not the first you've heard, but the first I wrote

Not the first, but the others were a long time ago

There are two people here, and I want you to kill them


[Verse 2]

Her - she can go quietly, by disease or a blow

To the base of her neck

Where her necklaces close

Where her garments come together

Where I used to lay my face...

That's where you oughta kill her

In that particular place


[Verse 3]

Him - just fucking kill him, I don't care if it hurts

Yes I do, I want it to

Fucking kill him but first

Make him cry like a woman

No particular woman

Let him hold out, hope that

Someone or other might come then fucking kill him


[Verse 4]

Fucking kill him

Kill him already, kill him

Fucking kill him, fucking kill him

Kill him already, kill him

Fucking kill him!

Fucking kill him!

Kill him already, kill him

Just fucking kill him!

Fucking kill him!

Fucking kill him already, kill him

Ah, fucking kill him

Fucking kill him

Kill him already, kill him

Kill him already

Kill him already

Kill him, fucking kill him

Just fucking kill him

Fucking kill him

Kill him already, kill him

Fucking kill him

Kill him

Fucking kill him already, kill him

Kill him, fucking kill him

Kill him, just fucking kill him

Kill him already

Kill him already

Kill him

Amen
