Would Be Killer
Unveiling the Inner Conflict: 'Would Be Killer' by Gnarls Barkley
Lyrics
I've got a secret
I possess a concealed piece of information
Something I thought maybe I could do
There was something I believed I could accomplish
But I can't now, can I?
However, I am unable to do so now, am I?
Lucky, lucky you
Fortunate, fortunate you
Did you know I could be,
Did you realize I have the potential to be
Or would be, killer
Or might become, a killer
If suddenly I should be
If suddenly circumstances lead me to be
Or would be, killer
Or might become, a killer
Hurt people, hurt people
People who are hurt tend to hurt others
This is always how
This is always the pattern
Oh I didn't turn to evil
Oh, I haven't turned towards malevolence
So someone best love me right now
So someone better show love to me at this moment
Because I could be,
Because I have the potential to be
Or would be, killer
Or might become, a killer
If suddenly I should be,
If suddenly circumstances lead me to be
I would be, killer
I would be, a killer
Now don't you dare me
Now, do not challenge or provoke me
Or we will dance
Or we will engage in a dance
High up balancing ballet
High up, performing a delicate ballet
So I may still get my chance
So I may still have an opportunity
