"The Villain" lyrics

I killed them all, of course

I killed them all, of course
For all you know there could have been many more
Caught in the crosshairs of Galveston
You had me dead to rights
Come on!
I even put the goddamn gun in your hands
That's the difference between you and I
I never, never miss

First the arms, then the legs. Finally the head
Dismember the story so it may never be read

I'm no villain! I am just like you
We're in the business of self-preservation
I'm no villain! I am just like you
We're in the business of self-preservation

You missed me in Manhattan
Was it quick? Was it quick?
I'll never tell
Was it quick? Was it quick?
Label me, however you like
I am no villain, I am just like you

First the arms, then the legs. Finally the head
Dismember the story so it may never be read

I'm no villain! I am just like you
We're in the business of self-preservation
I'm no villain! I am just like you
We're in the business of self-preservation

The Jig is up and The Jinx is real
The only grave worth lying in
Is the one you dig yourself

It seems I've won again
You still never caught me
I caught myself

I'm no villain! I am just like you
We're in the business of self-preservation
I'm no villain! I am just like you
We're in the business of self-preservation

I am no villain, I am just like you
I am no villain, I am just like you
