You kill me

I killed me
It was easy 
One lump or two 
rub some grease in the wounds 
Pass the salt 
Light the fuse 
I killed me 
It was easy 

You kilted me 
In the attic 
With a lead weight 
In a handbag or a sock 
Bite the bullet 
Take a stab
You killed me
Jolly sixpence

I killed you 
Cos you mock me
Inflagrenti 
Taxidermist 
In the car park 
With a hose pipe 
Killed you like 
A baby rabbit 

AC/DC 
Metal jacket 
Hangman's noose 
Invisible worm
Bubonic cockerel 
Chronic monger 
Of apocalypse
Like a sniffle 
Billion killers 
War and famine 

Will you kill me
Beautiful friend 
Orchid fleeting
Push me to the bitter pass 
Glide right through me

Bone and breast
All that lives
You know the rest 
We'll go no more a roving  
Beautiful friend 
Hilt and rapier 
To the end.
