Piano Magic - Night of the Hunter lyrics

It's the night of the hunter It's the night of the long knives It's the night of the hunter And you can justify all you like Sleep tight, this snowy night For spring, you will never see again Say goodbye to your awful wives Bid farewell to your awful friends I'm twenty steps from the jugular I'm twenty steps from the d**h I'm twenty steps from the funeral I'm twenty steps from your last breath The shadow falls on the abbatoir gates As you leave with the stench on your hands I am here with a cigarette bait I am here to asphyxiate It's the night of the hunter It's the night of the long knives It's the night of the hunter And you can justify all you like The laugh you spew on this landscape As you erase it of the gentle hare Will be your last on this landscape Will be your last anywhere Matador, bear baiter, Butcher, hare courser Value your life while you can
