| A friend of mine was writing the script for a serial killer short film, and asked me to write some lyrics. I think the tone was supposed to be somber, but I kind of had some fun with it. To set the scene, a man has kidnapped a serial killer and plans to execute him. The serial killer has a last song where he explains why he does what he does and why killing him might not be such a cut-and-dry execution. I'd be embarrassed to post it in any sort of critique group, because most of their songs rhyme love with dove and involve tears. I don't want to be run out of town like Dr. Frankenstein. -------------------- Darrel's Song By Gregory Karber Darrel’s Song Everyone said I was crazy My mind is a little bit hazy But ask anyone and they’ll tell you, everybody’s a little deranged And truly, I might have done more Might not have sliced up that dirty old whore But ask anyone and they’ll tell you, we’re all just a little insane Oh yes, how the blood it ran freely How my heart it beat really --Really fast! Oh, yes, how my soul it was floating When their bodies were bloating --It’s a gas! And now I’m at my resort; My time, I feel, is running short, But still, I’ll never shill against my love: I loved to kill! I loved to slice! I loved to maim! I loved the thrill! I loved to hurt! I loved to cut! I loved to stab! The blood would spurt! And though you’ve beaten me right now I will win, and that’s my vow! Cause I know that I’m no worser, than thou! My my, how my heart knew no maybe When I shot that young lady --It’s a blast! My my, how I felt like a wizard When I tore out her gizzard --Through her ass! And now I’m at my resort; My time, I think, is running short, But still, I’ll never shill against my love: I loved to kill! I loved to slice! I loved to maim! Oh God, the thrill! I loved to flirt! The putrid corpses I would get up in their skirts! And though you’ve turned it all around I think your premise is unsound ‘Cause even as I sit here bound… I sing: I loved the pain! I loved the feeling that I felt—-it's not insane! It’s quite the rush! And don’t you know we only do what’s best for us! And though you’ve bested me, it’s fine I will win, you’ll see, in time Why I’ll explain, right here, right now, in rhyme: Though you’ve won at my own game I will get you all the same, for I promise... I promise... You’ll love it, like me… [Spoken:] This won’t be your last… you’ll see… -------------------- What do you guys think? | |
