I know it must seem to you like the strangest thing to say, | |
But in the winter of his presence I've always felt warm and safe. | |
I always knew no skirt no suit would ever bother me, | |
As long as he is present, as long as this man stayed close to me. | |
I do like his company, I enjoy it, in fact, | |
He's the only human friend that I ever had, | |
Which is quite ironic, 'cause he's mostly occupied | |
By the methods that exist to blow out people's lights... | |
I wouldn't be surprised at all, | |
If someday I found out | |
That he had thoroughly checked on my life | |
And on my background, | |
And confidently reconfirmed | |
By the things he didn't find, | |
He then granted me access to a small part | |
Of his secret life... | |
I know it must seem to you | |
Like the strangest thing to say, | |
But in the winter of his presence | |
I've always felt warm and safe... | |
I never had to worry though, it can't give me the chills, | |
Because, you see, men are the only species that he kills. | |
Oh, that's why I love his company, quite enjoy it, in fact, | |
He is the only human friend that I ever had. | |
I rarely ponder on him | |
In the wayward hours of the day, | |
But am surprised at my own delight | |
I find in seeing him again. | |
White shirt, black tie, exquisite twine, | |
I'm brewing tea, he's having wine. | |
It's quite seductive, if it's right, | |
The perfect way to spend the night... | |
I do like his company, I enjoy it, in fact, | |
He's the only human friend that I ever had, | |
Which is quite ironic, 'cause he's mostly occupied | |
By the methods that exist to blow out people's lights... | |
I never had to worry though, it can't give me the chills, | |
Because, you see, men are the only species that he kills. | |
Oh, that's why I love his company, quite enjoy it, in fact, | |
He is the only human friend that I ever had. | |
Each act performed is like a ballet, a prayer, precise and acute. | |
Oh, how I do admire such perfect business-like attitude, | |
Both in style and execution, virtuously immaculate... - | |
And flawlessly equated to the savage fee that he has set. | |
Built just like the ideal of an athlete, my champion of sorts. | |
His price is one that only broken hearts are willing to afford. | |
Death is always quite disastrous, messy, common and obscene, | |
But in the golden hour when he leaves all is stainless, all is clean... | |
If I, one day, might also decide to need | |
This special kind of service that this man provides, | |
Oh, I will pray that my fate kindly agrees to the plot, | |
And sends someone like this man to come and finish the job. | |
Because I just cannot bear the foul and blasphemous thought | |
That involves getting slain by some filthy amateur's hands. | |
I know it must seem to you like the strangest thing to say, | |
But in the winter of his presence I always felt warm and safe. | |
I know that you must surely think me mad, | |
But he's the most human friend that I ever had... |
