about

Here's the opening track from my debut album Ed Haynes sings Ed Haynes released in 1989.

lyrics

Well, you gotta vote in the Senate
You gotta vote in the House
Then the President makes a speech
A committee decides which committee decides
which committee decides which committee decides

I'm gettin' paper cuts and my eyes are bloodshot
from watching the tape turn red
The pentagon has too much paperwork to start a real war
I wish they'd just send me instead

Cuz I want to kill everybody
Save the world from hard times
I want to kill everybody
and go to jail for atrocious war crimes

I want a machine gun that's big and bulky
that shoots and never misses
A nuclear war would be such a bore
I want to meet death and ask How's the Mrs?

Now that the US has bought the war in Nicaragua
I say Why stop there?
There's plenty of other countries to obliterate
Playing favorites just ain't fair

And I want to kill everybody
Desperate I may be
I want to kill everybody
Everybody except me

How about them protesters visualizing world peace
Yeah, right. I've got your piece right here
There's been four billion wars over Israel
But them bumper stickers inspire me here

And I want to kill everybody
Everyone and everything
I want to kill everybody
and declare myself king
