T-Bone Burnett – Kill Switch lyrics
We killed 'em at the palace, babe
And we murdered ‘em in Rome
We knocked 'em all dead, babe
Then we brought it all back home

The big heat is coming down
Like hail from the sky
Don't look for me in the morning, babe
Only kiss me goodbye

There are those who play for money, babe
There are those who play for fame
There are still those who only play
For the love of the game
