Lyrics for Song: I Kill Therefore I Am
Lyrics for Album: Rehearsals For Retirement / Gunfight Carnegie Hall [2000]
Meet the king of cowboys, he rides a pale pony
He fights the bad boys, brings them to their knees
He patrols the highways from the air
He keeps the country safe from long hair
I am the masculine American man
I kill therefore I am
I don't like the black man, for he does not know his place
Take the back of my hand, or I'll mark you with my mace
I'm as brave as any man can be, I find my courage in chemistry
I am the masculine American man
I kill therefore I am
I don't like the students now, they don't have no respect
They don't like to work now, I think I'll ring their necks
They call me pig although I'm underpaid
I'll show those faggots that I'm not afraid
I am the masculine American man
I kill therefore I am
Farewell to the gangsters, we don't need them anymore
We've got the police force, they're the ones that break the law
He's got a gun and he's a hater
He shoots first he shoots later
I am the masculine American man
I kill therefore I am
