The Best Way To Kill - Soft Cell

Dishonesty breeds like poison in an unhealed wound

Multiply tell a little lie

To pull the wool

Over god’s little eye

Before he makes up his mind

And that wouldn’t do

Life is one long Play For Today

The one that uses all the four-letter words

The one that everybody pretends

They’ve never never heard

Oh yeah

And it gets in my skin

And I find myself fitting a form

That is worn like a badge on a blazer at school

Tear it off rip it up

Stick your 2 fingers up at the world

And the lying little worms

That would take you for a fool

For your life has to be this way

And you can’t say this

And you can’t watch that

It’ll darken your mind little child —

A moral straightjacket to stop you running completely wild

Oh yeah

And it’s nice when being yourself behind a locked door

Talk in whispers when you’re scared out of your mind

By the law

Who leave no bruises but the ones in your heart

And they’re the ones that really hurt

Yeaaahhh

The debate of the day, win a long holiday

You at home can decide what would be the best way to kill

The best way to kill

And you don’t stand a chance in hell

But you go down fighting to the sound of the bell

Losers all in the eyes of the men with the pens

But winners all in the end

The debate of the day, win a long holiday

You at home can decide what would be the best way to kill

The best way to kill

And you don’t stand a chance in hell

But you go down fighting to the sound of the bell

Losers all in the eyes of the men with the pens

But winners all in the end

(Before he makes up his mind)

Winners all in the end
