Got blood beneath my fingernails
It drips upon the ground I stand upon
But I'm just an av'rage Joe
(Execution)
I love to laugh, sometimes I cry
I'm just sick of all of these awkward dates
Bring up my job, the girl flies
(Kinda awkward)

And I'm angry that no-one believes
That I'm pleasant as I can be
It's my day job that makes them freak
My occupation
Is execution

But I, I'm quite a jolly guy
Should work harder to hide
The blood stains
Left from my daily grind
Sure I make lots of people die
They're criminals, besides
I'm really good with knots, that's no lie

Just cause I've hung a lot of dudes
Doesn't mean I love to see the blood fly
Sorry for dripping blood on you
(I'll clean that mess)
Sure, I've snapped my fair share of bones
I may have put people's spleens in a jar
But I'm an honest, upright guy
(Love a good jest)

No, your skin I don't want to flay
I will not bring work home, no way
This black cap doesn't mean I'm deranged
This execution
My occupation

But I, I'm quite the funny guy
I'm not a freak, no lie
Baby, please
Please don't pass out this time
This guy, took way too long to die
That's why I'm late, that's right
This job is killing my social life

I don't lurk around
Killing random guys
I don't lurch around
Slaughtering young guys
I just walk around
Eat food by the pound
Lots of booze, I'll down
Won't kill random guys
It's gotten around
That I walk 'round town
Killing random guys
My job in this town
Given by the crown
Is to kill bad guys
When I'm told to, pow

I, I am a stand-up guy
There's no dark beast inside
Just me here
With a shitty job, mind
Yes I, don't like my daily grind
Chopping the heads off guys
Who did bad things, I'm not a bad guy

I
I am not a creepy guy
