Lyrics:

Once you've decided on a killing
First you make a start on your heart
And if you find that your hands are still willing
Then you can turn a murder into art
There really isn't any need for bloodshed
You just do it with a little finesse
If you can slip it down within a slow and slow bit
Then it avoids an awful lot of mess
Because it's murder by numbers, one, two, three
It's as easy to learn as your ABCs
Murder by numbers, one, two, three
It's as easy to learn as your ABCs
Now if you have a taste for this experience
And you're first with your very first success
And you must try to twist the more and twist some
You'll find your conscience bothers you much less
Because murder is like anything you take to
It's a habit forming if you want it more
You can pull the type you never really felt the need
And anybody else you're planning for
It's murder by numbers, one, two, three
It's as easy to learn as your ABCs
Murder by numbers, one, two, three
It's as easy to learn as your ABCs
You can join the ranks of the illustrious
In history's great dark hall of fame
All the greatest killers were industrious
At least the ones that we all know by name
You can reach the top of your profession
If you become the leader of the land
But murder is the sport of the elected
You don't need to lift a finger or your hand
It's murder by numbers, one, two, three
It's as easy to learn as your ABCs
Murder by numbers, one, two, three
It's as easy to learn as your ABCs
It's murder by numbers, one, two, three
It's as easy to learn as your ABCs
Murder by numbers, one, two, three
It's as easy to learn as your ABCs
Murder by numbers, one, two, three
It's as easy to learn as your ABCs
Murder by numbers, one, two, three
It's as easy to learn as your ABCDEE
