I'm The Man Who Murdered Love Lyrics - Homegrown - Xtc

[Chorus] 

I'm the man who murdered love 

Yeah! What do you think to that? 

I'm the man who murdered love 

Yeah! What do you think to that? 

He was begging on his bended knee 

For me to put him from his misery 

He hadn't worked at all this century 

Said 'I do a job for all humanity' 

[Chorus] 

I put a bullet in his sugar head 

He thanked me kindly then he lay down dead 

Phony roses blossomed where he bled 

Then all the cheering angels shook my hand and said 

[Chorus] 

Oh! It's the middle of the song! 

Oh! Yeah! Oh! Yeah! 

I'm guilty! I'm guilty! 

I'm guilty! Yeah! 

And then I turned and said 

There'll be more pain from broken hearts 

And no more lovers to be torn apart 

Before you throw me in your dungeon dark 

You ougtta film me putting statues up in every park 

[Chorus] 

So dear public, I'm here to confess 

That I'm the one who freed us from this mess 

Love won't be calling at your address 

Cause you've never had you'll never miss, I guess 

[Chorus] 

If you never ever use it 

You know you're gonna lose it 

If you never ever kiss it 

How're you ever gonna miss it? 

[Chorus]
