Public enemy number one
Jail break and a smoking gun
You won't believe the things I've done
And the killing is just for fun
Public enemy number one
A stolen car and I'm on the run
Through the night till the rising sun
And the trouble has just begun
Roses on your grave
I'll be on my way
There's no time to stay
With the enemies I've made
I'm invincible
You might say despicable
Punishment's reciprocal
Public enemy number one
I'm unbeatable
My mind's untreatable
Crimes unrepeatable
Public enemy number one
Solo Chris
Public enemy number one
Watch the authorities come undone
With every stand-off that I've won
Flirting death just for fun
Public enemy number one
Born a fugitive father's son
Another heist of a bank is done
And the trouble has just begun
Roses on your grave
I'll be on my way
There's no time to stay
With the enemies I've made
I'm invincible
You might say despicable
Punishment's reciprocal
Public enemy number one
I'm unbeatable
My mind's untreatable
Crimes unrepeatable
Public enemy number one
Solo Mustaine
The posters say I'm wanted "Dead or Dead"
Anyone who's tried got a bullet to the head...
I'm invincible
You might say despicable
Punishments reciprocal
Public enemy number one
I'm unbeatable
My mind's untreatable
Crimes unrepeatable
Public enemy number one
Public enemy!
Public enemy!
Public enemy!
PUBLIC ENEMY!
