Build yourself a castle
Keep your family safe from harm
Get into classical music
Raise rabbits on a farm

Log on in the night time
Drink a half-bottle of wine
Buy a couple of records
Look at naked girls from time to time

And people tell me
what a real nice guy you are
So come on, serenade me
on your acoustic guitar

And don't believe me
if I claim to be your friend
'cos given half the chance
I know that I will kill again
I will kill again

And wouldn't it be nice
for all the world to live in peace?
And no-one gets ill or ever dies
or dies of boredom at the very least

And people tell me
what a real nice guy you are
So come on, serenade me
on your acoustic guitar

And don't believe me
if I claim to be your friend
'cos given half the chance
I know that I will kill again
I will kill again
