Lyrics for Song: Please Don't Talk About Murder While I'm Eating 
Lyrics for Album: Both Sides of the Gun [2006]
  
               
  3679>You're the first one to get there
  And always the last one to leave
  You're the first one to chuckle
  But the last one to grieve
 
 
  I know all too well the world takes a daily beating
  But please don't talk about murder while I'm eating
 
 
  You walk into the temple
  You call it a church
  I tried to keep things simple
  But you always need the works
 
 
  Your life is marked by numbers and symbols
  Excessive drinking from out of golden thimbles
  Just a moment of silence I need
 
 
  So let's not talk about murder while I'm eating
  Please don't talk about murder while I'm eating
 
 
  You get all hot and bothered
  At the strangest times and places
  But don't notice the looks
  On all the others faces
 
 
  You're dressed for summer
  In the middle of December
  But you've all but forgotten
  I painfully remember
 
 
  Now I don't care if in the least what you're reading
  Please don't talk about murder while I'm eating
  Please don't talk about murder while I'm eating
  Let's not talk about murder while I'm eating
