Once that you've decided on a killing
First you make a stone of your heart
And if you find that your hands are still willing
Then you can turn a murder into art
There really isn't any need for bloodshed
You just do it with a little more finesse
If you can slip a tablet into someone's coffee
Then it avoids an awful lot of mess
Because it's murder by numbers one two three
It's as easy to learn as your A B C
It's murder by numbers one two three
It's as easy to learn as your A B C
Now if you have a taste for this experience
And you're flushed with your very first success
Then you must try a twosome or a threesome
And you'll find your conscience bothers you much less
Because murder is like anything you take to
It's a habit forming need for more and more
You can bump off every member of your family
And anybody else you find a bore
Because it's murder by numbers one two three
It's as easy to learn as your A B C
It's murder by numbers one two three
It's as easy to learn as your A B C
You can join the ranks of the illustrious
In history's great dark hall of fame
All our greatest killers were industrious
At least the ones that we all know by name
If you become the leader of the land
And you don't need to lift a finger of your hand
Because it's murder by numbers one two three
It's as easy to learn as your A B C
Murder by numbers one two three
It's as easy to learn as your A B C D E
One two three A B C
One two three A B C
One two three A B C
I say it's the murder by numbers one two three
It's as easy to learn as your A B C
It's murder by numbers one two three
It's as easy to learn as your A B C D E
