Wearing My Smile

The prince of darkness calls me by name

As I stand here with blood on my hands

He promised me power, fortune and fame

If I do the deeds he commands

So I pick up the knife and walk out the door

Destined to claim my reward

He said, "Your name will be famous forevermore

And I will not be ignored"

The first person I see, will meet death tonight 

When a sailor walks by, he's first

I stabbed his heart, with all of my might

Quenching my blade's lustful thirst

I follow a hooker for about thirteen blocks

When she stopped and asked me my name

I said, "I'm death, now hear how he knocks"

She's quite pretty, a pitiful shame

I had followed my victim for over a mile

She screamed, as my knife found her throat

And now this hooker is wearing my smile

And all I could do was just gloat

I made it back home and climbed into bed

The darkness who commands me was vexed

"You promised me three, not two" he said

"I'm sorry to say that you're next"
