Fool Killer

I was walking down the backstreet other night

I've got a funny feeling everything was right

Heard somebody's footsteps right behind

And I know it wasn't just in my mind

Fool killer's coming

Getting closer every day

You know the fool killer's coming

I've got to try to make my getaway

I've been living in this country eight years

Scratching and a-scraping for that dollar bill

Eight million people living on the brink

Got no time to stop and think

Fool killer's coming

I do believe it's true

You know the fool killer's coming

You know he's got his eye on me and you

If you've never been a fool and you don't have to worry

You know you had better get in a hurry

Just to be on the safe side

Get yourself a place to hide

Fool killer's coming

Getting closer every day

You know the fool killer's coming

I've got to try to make my getaway
