Executioner

Uncle Slam


He was a beaten child 
Planning all his life to fill his one desire 
So hurt he prayed to die 
Feeling hurt and battered but afraid to cry 

Fear the executioner 
His blood runs cold 
Vigilante on the streets 
Feeding on the city heat 

In life revenge is sweet 
That's the law he lived by it was his greatest need 
He had to burn the cross 
And sum up all his evils giving life to his cause 

On the prowl 
His vengeance increased with every breath 
Seeking them out 
His gun is the judge the sentence death 

He died a violent death 
The kids out on the street just did away with his head 
The rest was burnt to a crisp 
The gruesome executioner was a fitting end 

They killed the executioner 
His blood ran red 
Now every night they walk in fear 
And every night they fear the dead
