lyrics

THE FORMULA IS GOOD
A COP, A KILLER, A GUN AND A GIRL
BUT GUTS AND GORE AIN’T ENOUGH, IT’S A BUST
CATCHIN’ SOME CHUMP AND LOCKIN’ HIM UP

I’LL TELL YOU WHAT THEY WANT
IT AIN’T A CREAM PUFF IN TIGHTS AND A MASK
THE REAL HEROES TODAY KNOW THAT JUSTICE IS BLIND
AND THE LAW’S A DEAD END

FANTASY SPINNERS ADD A FIRE TO THE DULL WORK-A-DAY
YOU GOT THE SHORT STRAW AGAIN
GET REVENGE WITH SOME BAD BUXOM BABE
WE’RE MAKING ‘EM PAY!

WE’LL GIVE EM WHAT THEY WANT
TWICE THE ACTION AND DOUBLE THE SKIN
YOU’LL BE SURVEYING THE SPOILS FROM A PENTHOUSE
WITH A CUBAN IN YOUR HAND AND AN ACTRESS ON YOUR ARM

CRAMMED FULL OF MURDER
CARNAGE, BLOOD, SHOCK AND AWE
BIG BLOOD RED ‘CRIME’ ON THE FRONT
OUR HOTSHOT CROOKS HAVE A POINT
AND WE WANT WHAT THEY WANT

DON’T MOVE OR I’M GONNA SHOOT!
A DOSE OF REALITY, THE CRIME PAYS FORMULA
RED BLOODED, AXE GRINDING ROBBERS AND HOODS
WE’RE FINALLY TELLING YOU ALL TRUE STORIES

FULL COLOUR SPLASHES
BULLETS FLYING, FLESH TORN AWAY
A NICE WHIFF OF SEX ON THE SIDE
WITH A GOOD GIRL GONE BAD
ON EVERY PAGE

DON’T MOVE OR I’M GONNA SHOOT!
TAKE A BIG DOSE OF THE CRIME PAYS FORMULA
WISE GUYS ON THEIR WAY TO THE TOP
LET ME ORDER YOU ALL TRUE STORIES
OF HOODLUMS AND SCANDAL AND MAYHEM
AND MAKE THE DEAR READER WISH
THEY WERE RIDING RIGHT WITH THEM!
