Artist: Camper Van Beethoven
Song: Axe Murderer Song
Album: Vantiquities
Tuning: Standard, Capo 3
INTRO:
VERSE 1:
Why do lovers park down deserted lanes?
Near haunted houses and homes for the insane?
Like a deformed son who was locked in a shed
Later es--caped when he chopped off their heads
VERSE 2:
Why do axe murderers only attack
When you're partially nude or you're taking a bath
Tho there are times I feel softer than most
Somedays like yogurt & some days like toast
VERSE 3:
Sorority girls and fraternity boys
Always de--flowered. They're rich and they're spoiled
So we never feel bad when Aunt Jenny, who's dead
Surprises them lying on her wedding bed
VERSE 4:
When we're making love now, I feel so ex--posed
Might you im--pale me or turn into those
Creatures that feed on the flesh of the living
They hide in the corn between June & Thanks--giving
OUTTRO:
Why do axe murderers only at--tack when we're
Making love...
Why do axe murderers only at--tack when we're
Partially nude or taking a
Bath.
