Send "To The Kill" Ringtone to Cell

Ain't had no fun

all the time jacking around

ain't had no fun

all the time messin mind

I kick it around

but if it's alright with you

if it's alright yes I will

aw c'mon babe

go ahead to the kill

I ain't no kid Chicago

I ain't no Al Capone

but there's a windy city

in my bedroom alone

I said I don't live in Chicago

I don't know no Al Capone

that bitch took my money

and went to Chicago

if I ain't already enough

sick and alone

wher's it at

it's down down it's downtown

Send "To The Kill" Ringtone to Cell

    General Comment:It's the seedy, more mysterious little brother of "Heartbreaker" (Led Zeppelin)...you get the sense he is going to kill "that bitch" he mentions because he is drugged up and paranoid, but he never goes through with it cause he is lazy and too stoned. A bluesy, dark, underground track that would be the perfect soundtrack to your next hit for the Mafia as revenge for a botched drug deal in the 1970s while little cocaine rocks are falling out of your nose...

    General Comment:This is my favorite song to play on bass. I just play along to the music and either follow, or do my own thing.
    When he sings the "but if it's alright with you... and if it's alright, yes i will" part I feel really happy, because he sounds so happy and at peace to say it.

    General Comment:I "feel" this song. Inside of me. It's nice to just listen to this song in an almost-completely-dark room and just /feel/ it.
