I was drawn and quartered in Düsseldorf
I was beheaded in Berlin
I faced the firing squad in Florence
I was laid to rest in Lintz

I was poisoned in Palermo
I was skinned alive in Split
I was shot down in Saint Petersburg
I got the rack in Reykjavik

I was axed in Amsterdam
Boiled in oil in Bucharest
I was crucified in Cape Town
I had my brains bashed in in Brest

I was gored in Glasgow
I caught the plague in Prague
I was lit on fire in London
I was crushed in Qaqortoq

No matter where I wander
You have the power to stop my breath
Evеry time you cross my mind
I die another dеath

I can't escape the black-eyed dog
However far I run away
Want somebody who doesn't want you
And you'll die a little every day
