Heads will Roll

Block on the scaffold - centre of town,
Round about sunrise - sh*t goes down,
Here come the axe man stroking his blade,
Do the right thing now - be afraid,
Pretty good view from the top of the pole,
One thing's for certain,
Heads will roll.

Heads will roll.
Heads will roll.

Crowd by the scaffold - looking real scared,
Head on the block now - long neck bared,
Axe man settin' up to start this show,
Plays like he means it - go dog go,
Wait for that bell in the tower to toll,
When it starts ringing,
Heads will roll.

Heads will roll.
Heads will roll.

Blood on the scaffold - head on the ground,
First there's screaming - then no sound,
Axe man picking it up off of the floor,
He got the chops man - he wants more,
Look at him swinging it out of control,
No doubt about it,
Heads will roll.

Heads will roll.
Heads will roll.

Ain't nobody gonna save your soul,
Karma's a real b*tch,
Heads will roll.

[Notes]
Most of this occurred to me while listening to:

[wl]248527[/wl]

Which is a pretty awesome blues jam with a riff that got in to my head
along with the Game of Thrones vibe which was enhanced by the somewhat
mesmeric animated gif posted on the track page... They even dance in time.

The track itself probably doesn't need much (if anything) by way of lyrics
though - but hopefully my pattern is clear. Gary (on guitar) says in the
comments that it's a bit of a departure in style for him, which is tough to
believe as he's clearly very good at it!

Obviously I'm squeezing hard in the middle of these verses on the double
meaning of Axe Man as both executioner and Guitarist.

TBH though, the described events are not unlike most Alice Cooper shows
that I've been to.
