I have been at school today
The teacher was lying on the floor
One of the killers had been tied up at the door
Many tables were light afire
And some little girl had been strangled with a wire

I read in the paper today
"Beware of the killer; he is on his way"

I saw myself running in the yard
And all my friends were playing hide and seek
My little girlfriend made scratches on my cheek
My favorite Miss was walking in the sun
I felt her breasts that stopped me in the run
And now she's dead
I'm sure she has been raped
No use to scream
The killer has escaped

I read in the paper today
"Beware of the killer; he is on his way"

It's too late
It's too late
I remember the games we used to play
I have been at school today
Now that I'm here
I'm trying to say
It never has been my intention this way
I hope I'll meet that killer at the end
Cuz I'm afraid he once was my friend

I read in the paper today
"Beware of the killer; he is on his way"

I read in the paper today
"Beware of the killer; he is on his way"

I read in the paper today
"Beware of the killer"
