The New Assassin (Radio 1 Live Version)

歌詞

Skip the roadblock here she comes Get a load of the pretty blue gun Any slick trick under the sun She'll do it if it isn't done She made arrangements she couldn't come She dresses like a secretary and lives like a nun Your crime is the radiant passion It's time for the new assassin Cool killer top of the class The other side of the shatterproof glass Works as fast as the cameras flash With the cyanide cigarettes and the cs gas It's her job - doesn't bat an eyelash She's working for the perishing mass The breadline's back in fashion It's time for the new assassin A melody played on a hand grenade From the rifle range in the green arcade As the rain fell down on the big parade Messed up the motorcade - mucked up the masquerade Secret weapons become displayed In the hands of half a dozen aides Just four men and a couple of gay blades Shantung suits and shatterproof shades Shoot up anybody who happens to be passing Everybody but the new assassin One link in the human chain In the city where it always rains No profit or personal gain Are the silent rules in a lonesome game One face in a purple frame A black border round the name Chalk marks around a blood stain Thin blue line red light flashing It's time for the new assassin What time did you see it happen It's time for the new assassin
