Ben grew up to be the butcher not by choice [00:00:00]

It's just the lot in life he found[00:00:03]

But he makes a decent living [00:00:08]

Feeds his family and the people of the town[00:00:09]

But there's no dreams brought to fruition [00:00:15]

Just a gradual attrition[00:00:16]

The decayed scraps of ambition he once carved by hand[00:00:18]

But there's no time for regrets [00:00:22]

It's not as bad as it appears[00:00:23]

He's got a lucrative career[00:00:25]

But he never gets the bloodstains off his hands[00:00:27]

A killer frequents bars on Ladies＇[00:00:43]

Night with a steely-eyed command[00:00:45]

But he ain't out cruising hookers and he ain't no shady looker [00:00:50]

He's a charming handsome man[00:00:53]

His voice says ladies but his mind is thinking bitches[00:00:57]

But his pitch is just too much for most of them to withstand[00:01:00]

He tells them jokes and he gets them all in stitches[00:01:04]

And it goes off without hitches[00:01:07]

Till he tries to get the bloodstains off his hands[00:01:09]

Nothing good comes easy[00:01:43]

Isn't that what you would have me to believe[00:01:44]

For every positive endeavor there is a dark side we must weather[00:01:49]

You will see yeah you will see[00:01:53]

All the coroners and corpsmen and the slaughterhouse foremen[00:02:07]

It's just there job five days a week [00:02:11]

Please try and understand[00:02:13]

It's their lot to get through it [00:02:14]

They know someone's got to do it[00:02:16]

And try not to misconstrue it[00:02:18]

When they try to wash the bloodstains off their hands[00:02:19]

Now she's had seven years of happiness with a boy[00:02:25]

She's always claimed to have adored[00:02:27]

And there's fewer who've been truer[00:02:32]

But as of late she finds herself a little bored[00:02:34]

She tells him she still loves him[00:02:39]

And has only good thoughts of him[00:02:41]

And the times they've had and hopes[00:02:43]

That it'll help him understand[00:02:45]

When she runs her knife straight through him [00:02:46]

It's the only way to do them[00:02:48]

She's the winner of the game[00:02:50]

But she'll never get the bloodstains off her hands[00:02:52]

In the end they all fall just the same[00:02:56]

But she'll never get the bloodstains off her hands[00:02:59]

He will have some cheburery big[00:03:03]

But she'll never get the bloodstains off her hands[00:03:06]
