The First Killer of the Town

lyrics

THE FIRST KILLER OF THE TOWN

My father was a criminal
he killed six of his wifes
my mother was the third one
as he said “his favourite one”.
I used to live in terror
I used to hide and cry
i used to pray for Jesus
as he teached me since i was a child.

Help me Jesus now!

Drinking all the poison of the hate
he used to spite
learning all the secrets of the pain
that can´t be noun.
He used to sing his glory
while he kicked another ass
He used to fall in the floor
after burning all the fires.

Help me Jesus now!

I can´t explain what happened
i don´t know how it started
but they say that they found me
walking with a bloody knife around.
And now that all his ashes
are blessed and next to God
I don´t feel any shame
although they say i´m first killer of the town.


Help me Jesus now!
You know that i´m a lier
and i know that you are a lie...
