Kill Me (Ce Soir)

Remember that song called "Kill Me"
From Vick Timm's last LP
Too much of a risk for a golden disc
The price he paid for money

Ce soir, ce soir
Assassination d'un rock 'n' roll star
Ce soir, ce soir
Assassination d'un rock 'n' roll star

"Sing your song, you can't go wrong,"
Tempted his business adviser
"No need for alarm, you'll come to no harm."
He didn't mention the sniper!

Ce soir, ce soir
Assassination d'un rock 'n roll star

The news is read, the meaning spread
One yawn, two yawn, and back to bed
Come on, maman, bend down your head
Turn off the light and hold me tight

And just sing on, immortal song
Fini belle vie
Bonne nuit

Remember that song called "Kill Me"
A lecture on political chicanery
A people's rape
Recorded on tape

Bought shame to the presidency
Tonight, tonight
One more point for human right
Tonight, tonight
One more point for human right

Remember that song "Kill Me"
Once used by a man from Galilee
He had nothin' to lose
He was king of the Jews
Secured his place in history
Ce soir, Ce soir

Assassination d'un provocateur
One yawn, two yawn, and back to bed

Turn off the light and hold me tight
The news is read, the voice is spread
Come on, maman, bend down your head
And just sing on, immortal song

Fini belle vie

Vick played the part, with all his heart
He wasn't prepared for the shock
When howling lead bit into his head
A new martyr for the book of rock!

A new martyr for the book of rock
The book of rock
New martyr for the book of rock

Ce soir, ce soir
Assassination d'un rock 'n roll star
