1
I remember it as plain as day
2
Although it happened in the dark of the night.
3
I was strolling through the streets of Paris
4
And it was cold it was starting to rain.
5
And then I heard a piercing scream
6
And I rushed to the scene of the crime
7
But all I found was the butchered remains
8
Of two girls lay side by side.

10
Someone call the Gendarmes
11
Murders in the Rue Morgue
12
Run before the killers go free
13
There's some people coming down the street
14
At last there's someone heard my call
15
I can't understand why they're pointing at me
16
I never done nothing at all.
17
But I must have got some blood on my hands
18
Because everyone's shouting at me
19
I can't speak French so I couldn't explain
20
And like a fool I started running away.

Someone call the Gendarmes

Murders in the Rue Morgue
24
Am I ever gonna be free.
25
And now I've gotta get away from the arms of the law.
26
All France is looking for me.
27
I've gotta find my way across the border for sure
28
Down the south to Italy.

32
I'm never going home.
33
Well I made it to the border at last
34
But I can't erase the scene from my mind
35
Anytime somebody stares at me, well
36
I just start running blind
37
Well I'm moving through the shadows at night
38
Away from the staring eyes
39
Any day they'll be looking for me
40
'Cause I know I show the signs of...

Am I ever gonna be free
49
It took so long and I'm getting so tired
50
I'm running out of places to hide
51
Should I return to the scene of the crime
52
Where the two young victims died
53
If I could go to somebody for help
54
It'd get me out of trouble for sure
55
But I know that it's on my mind
56
That my doctor said I've done it before.

They're never gonna find me

I'm never going home.
