lyrics

Guillotine

Verse I:
Shall we dance to the tunes of doom
Behead you by the afternoon
Does it really matter, the former or the latter
You will get what you did ask for

Shall we dance to the tunes of doom
Behead you by the afternoon
Does it really matter, end of a chapter
Your head served on a silver platter

Trick us with your chaff
But death gets the final laugh

Shall we dance to the tunes of doom
Behead you by the afternoon
Does it really matter, the former or the latter
You will get what you did ask for

Chorus:
I will stand by the guillotine
Watch you burn away
Your stories and laughter
Smile for the camera

I will stand by the guillotine
You’re a jester in a court
Your head’s in a basket
You know that you’re full of it

You’re just like the others
Now, you know you’re full of shit

Verse II:
Shall we dance to the tunes of doom
Behead you by the afternoon
Does it really matter, the former or the latter
You will get what you did ask for

Shall we dance to the tunes of doom
We gather by the strike of noon
Your immoral acts and unflinching nature
Decapitate your frame and picture

Pre Chorus:
A tramp on the avenue
Sitting across right from you
You stole the change or two
We've just found out what kind of a prick that you are

A tramp on the avenue
Sitting across right from you
You stole the change or two
We've just found out what kind of a prick that you are

Chorus:
I will stand by the guillotine
Watch you burn away
Your stories and laughter
Smile for the camera

I will stand by the guillotine
You’re a jester in a court
Your head’s in a basket
You know that you’re full of it

Bridge:
Ooo you’re lucky that you have just one more chance
One more chance of being here, you best not sneer.

Ooo you’re lucky that you have just one more chance
One more chance of being here, you best not sneer.

Outro.
