"Talking Of Murder" lyrics

I never thought I'd see the day
When murder would become so common place
Hardly a minute ever goes by
Without a murder taking place and why

Well, for a start
The punishment's not hard
They sentence you to life
But you're out in no time

Talking of murder in America
Go along to any private cinema
The host will proudly want you to see
The ultimate in pornography

Let me explain
A girl is raped and then
You watch her scream and howl
As she's disembowled

Who knows by 2025
Actors may be told they'll have to die
In order to give the scene the realism that the public require
In order to give the scene the realism that the public require
That the public require

Remember that man in Dumblaine
Who fired the gun
When all those children were slain
At the time it made me so upset
Had I got hold of him I'd have broken his neck

Which only proves
No matter what your views
Whether or not you go to church
We're all murderers

Who knows by 2025
Actors may be told they'll have to die
In order to give the scene the realism that the public require
In order to give the scene the realism that the public require
That the public require
That the public require
