Electric Light Orchestra - In For The Kill Lyrics

Electric Light Orchestra Lyrics

"In For The Kill"

Listen to the money talk
Listen to it scream
Only lots of paper
But it haunts them in their dreams

Doesn't matter who they are
Doesn't matter where
Some people can't get enough
That is their only care

Going in for the kill
In for the kill

In for the kill, in for the slaughter
In for the thrill of the power game
In for the kill, in for the finish
They've got to win, it's the only way

In for the kill

Sitting in a darkened room
Sharing out the land
Someone holds a document
And smiles as they shake hands

Going in for the kill
In for the kill

In for the kill, in for the slaughter
In for the thrill of the power game
In for the kill, in for the finish
They've got to win, it's the only way

In for the kill

Everywhere you wander
Wander where you will
Someone's making deals
And going in for the kill

In for the kill, in for the slaughter
In for the thrill of the power game
In for the kill, in for the finish
They've got to win, it's the only way

In for the kill, in for the slaughter
In for the thrill of the power game
In for the kill, in for the finish
They've got to win, it's the only way

In for the kill
In for the kill
In for the kill
In for the kill
In for the kill
In for the kill
In for the kill
