"Murder", He Says Lyrics

?Murder?, he says!

Finally found a fella, almost completely divine
But his vocabulary, is killing this romance of mine
We get into an intimate situation
And then begins this character's conversation

He says, "Murder", he says
Every time we kiss He says, "Murder", he says
At a time like this He says, "Murder", he says
Is that the language of love?

He says, "Solid", he says
Takes me in his arms
And says, "Solid", he says
Meaning all my charms
He says, "Solid", he says
Is that the language of love?

He says, "Chick, chick, you torture me"
Zoot, are we livin'?? I'm thinkin of leaving him flat
He says, "Dig, dig the jumps, the old ticker is giving"
He can talk plainer than that

He says, "Murder", he says
Every time we kiss
He says, ?Murder?, he says
Keep it up like this
And that, ?Murder?, he says
In that impossible tone
Will bring on nobody's murder but his own.

He says, ?Dig in the groove?
Hey says ?Keep on the move?
He says, ?Murder!
Murder!
Murder, murder, murder, murder,?
That's what he says.
