MURDER IN HIGH HEELS
Simmons/Weissman
Rhy. ig 1 w/ nd 1
Rhy. ig 1 w/ nd 1
Hey, with a sleight of hand and then a word of mouth
She's a cat been caged too long and now she's breakin' out
Well, get it straight, you better cross your heart
'Cause sparks are gonna fly, let me tell you what it's all about
Rhy. ig 1 / nd 2
Better run for cover, babe, she's gonna make her move
You know she could, she's a get rich bitch
You better get her while the gettin's good
Rhy. ig 2a w/ nd 1 and Rhy. ig 2b w/ nd 1
She's a vision in leather, like salt on a wound
Rhy. ig 2a w/ nd 2 and Rhy. ig 2b w/ nd 2
Just a turn of a knob and she's real fine tuned
Rhy. ig 3a
But she's murder in high-heels
Rhy. ig 1 w/ nd 1
She ain't the girl next door worth waitin' for
Well you're playin' with the fire,
a pool of sweat's lyin' on the floor
She'll bring you to your knees, and when you're laid to rest
She's gonna give you something, she's gonna get it off her chest
Rhy. ig 1 w/ nd 2
(Yeah yeah yeah)
Rhy. ig 2a w/ nd 1 and Rhy. ig 2b w/ nd 1
She's a vision in leather, like salt on a wound
Rhy. ig 2a w/ nd 2 and Rhy. ig 2b w/ nd 2
Just a turn of a knob and she's real fine tuned - here she comes
Solo over Rhy. ig 3a (7x)
Rhy. ig 3b
Rhy. ig 2a w/ nd 1, Rhy. ig 2b w/ nd 1 and Riff 1
She's a vision in leather, like salt on a wound
Rhy. ig 2a w/ nd 2, Rhy. ig 2b w/ nd 2
Just a turn of a knob and she's real fine tuned
Rhy. ig 3a (2x) w/ Outro solo
But she's murder in high heels
Rhy. ig 4
Rhy. ig 3a
(repeat and fade)
