It's closing time, better head towards home
Please take care, and don't walk alone
They say don't talk to strangers but, we never have met
If it weren't in your reckless nature and, taken my hand
Wind is cool, and the lights yellow and
I give you a kiss, if you asked me too
They said don't take the candy though, it's o so sweet
She said well if you like your sugar then, your going to love me
There's murder in the streets better watch your step
Digging deeper poppers grave around the next bend
O there is treachery a foot so you best be wear
Take a tempted taste at the devils snare
Snare, snare
We walked so far, to your front door
You said first, you must be warned
They say listen closely and, keep a watchful eye
But yours are big and green and guy, he mesmerized, mesmerized
There's murder in the streets better watch your step
Digging deeper poppers grave around the next bend
O there is treachery a foot so you best be wear
Take a tempted taste at the devils snare
His snare, his snare
She offered me an apple and I ate up with sin
It was tart, sweet and sour so I took it with some gin
Said "Holy hallelujah I think I found my missing rib"
She said you can have it back
I think I will have your hear instead
But it only took a second for me making up my mind
Because in the peak of linger there was only you and I
I opened up my chest and said "Here we go again"
Would it be harder for me to invite you in, in, in, in
There's murder in the streets better watch your step
Digging deeper poppers grave around the next bend
O there is treachery a foot so you best be wear
Take a tempted taste at the devils snare
There's murder in the streets better watch your step
Digging deeper poppers grave around the next bend
O there is treachery a foot so you best be wear
Take a tempted taste at the devils snare
Snare, his snare, his snare
