IF TODAY
WEREN'T JUST LIKE
ANY DAY
PERHAPS I'D TRY
TO SHED THIS
WORN-OUT SKIN
SO THICK
AND LEARN TO FLY
BUT I CAME HOME
TO FACE YOUR EYES
AND STILL
IF LOOKS COULD KILL
I WOULD BE GONE TODAY
THERE'S A FIRE THAT'S
BURNIN' IN YOUR EYES
NOT IN YOUR HEART
AND I CAN
FAN THE FLAMES
BUT I CAN'T
MAKE THE SPARK
AND I DON'T LIKE THE WAY
I MAKE YOU FEEL
IF LOOKS COULD KILL
I WOULD BE
LONG SINCE GONE
AND IF LOOKS
COULD KILL
THEN I'D BE PUSHIN' UP
YOUR DAISY
IF LOOKS COULD KILL
THEN I WOULD NOT BE
GOING CRAZY
THERE'S A STOOL THAT
I'VE BEEN GLUED TO
FOR SO MANY NIGHTS
AND A BAR TO POUR
MY HEART OUT ON
AND MAKE IT RIGHT
AND I DON'T
HAVE TO TELL MYSELF
IT'S REAL
IF LOOKS COULD KILL
MY HEART WOULD BEAT
NO MORE
AND IF LOOKS
COULD KILL
THEN I'D BE DEEP IN
PEACEFUL SLUMBER
IF LOOKS COULD KILL
THEN I WOULD NOT BE
GOING UNDER
AND THERE'S A GUN
OUT IN OUR HALLWAY
COVERED UP IN RUST
THAT WORKS
WELL ENOUGH TO
TURN THIS HEARTACHE
INTO DUST
SO GO ON AND
LET YOUR LAWYER
MAKE THE DEAL
IF LOOKS COULD KILL
IF LOOKS COULD KILL
I WOULD BE
LONG SINCE GONE
