[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Now the contract's out
They've put the word about
I'm coming after you
It's not the money I make
It's the thrill of the chase
And I'm coming after you
I watch your every move
Study the things you do
And the pattern of your ways
I watch the way you walk
I hear your telephone talk
I want to understand the way you think
[Chorus]
Better watch out, 'cause I'm the assassin
Better watch out, 'cause I'm the assassin
Better watch out, better watch out
Better watch out, 'cause I'm the assassin
Better watch out, 'cause I'm the assassin
Better watch out, better watch out
[Post-Chorus]
Assassin, assassin
Assassin, assassin
Ha! Ha-ha-ha...
[Solo: Dave Murray]
[Solo: Janick Gers]
[Verse 2]
I'm in a cold, cold sweat
I taste the smell of death
I know the moment's getting closer
And as you walk to the light
I feel my hands go tight
Excitement running though my veins
I've got you in my sights
I've got you dead to rights
The trigger's waiting for my finger
I feel adrenaline rush
It's just the final touch
And you can kiss your ass goodbye
[Chorus]
Better watch out, 'cause I'm the assassin
Better watch out, 'cause I'm the assassin
Better watch out, better watch out
Better watch out, 'cause I'm the assassin
Better watch out, 'cause I'm the assassin
Better watch out, better watch out
[Post-Chorus]
