[Bridge]
Love is required whenever he's hired
It comes just before the kill
No-one can catch him, no hit man can match him
For his million dollar skill
[Verse 3]
One golden shot means another poor victim
Has come to a glittering end
If you want to get rid of someone
The man with the golden gun
Will get it done
He'll shoot anyone
With his golden gun
