  • No, I'll never give the hunt up
    And I won't muck it up
    Somehow this is it, I knew
    Maybe fate wants you dead, too
    We've come together in the very same room
    And I'm coming for you

    Do you think I'd ever let you
    Get away with it, huh?
    He swooned in warm maroon
    There's gas in your barrel, and I'm flooded with Doom
    You've made a wake of our honeymoon
    And I'm coming for you"

    "All of the headLines said 'Passion Crime"
    'Newly weds Groom Shot Dead
    'Mystery Man.' God help the bride
    She's a widow, all in red
    With his red still wet. She said--"

    I'll put him on the wedding list
    I'll put him on the wedding list
    I'll get him and I will not miss

    Now, as I'm coming for you
    All I see is Rudi
    I die with him, again and again
    And I'll feel good in my revenge
    I'm gonna fill your head with lead
    And I'm coming for you

    And when it's all over you'll roll over
    The butt of my gun:
    One in your belly, and one for Rudi
    You got what you gave by the heel of my bootie
    Bang-bang--Out! like an old cherootie
    I'm coming for you

    "All of the headLines said 'Passion Crime:
    'Newly weds Groom Shot Dead
    'Mystery Man.' God help the bride
    She's a widow, all in red
    With his red still wet. She said--"

    She sure got him on the wedding list
    I got him on the wedding list
    I got him and I did not miss
    I pinned him to the wedding list

    "And after she shot the guy
    She committed suicide
    I'm coming, Rudi
    "And later, when they analysed
    They found a little one inside.
    "It must have been Rudi's child"
    I shot, I shot, I shot him honey
    "Never mind, she got the guy"
    He hit the ground, Rudi
    "An eye for an eye"
    Ashes to ashes...
    "Eye for an eye"
    I hit him, hit him
    Rudi!, Rudi
    I'm coming coming coming honey
    "Eye for an eye"
