Lyrics

"Not by rancour does one kill but by laughter."
Nietzsche's zarathustra

Murder is not a crime as taught:
The only crime is to get caught
Murder ought to be planned and thought
From every angle

Sin? the sin is to be meek
Cowards turn the other cheek!
One can't afford to be weak
Here in this jungle

For wolves, to slaughter sick sheep
Is an act of citizenship
It's a moral duty to strip
The vile from their lives
Eye for sight and tooth for jaw:
My reading of the jungle's law
Even when it's served cold shall
My vengeance arrive

Murder is not a crime as thought:
The only crime is to get caught
Though this days 'tis better to kill
One too many than one too few..
