Shoot Him - The Sugarcubes

Einar

Kann vi ekki skjóta hann?

There were four of us One of us was the landlord

There were, we were on a drinking spree

I had eaten my take-away

I washed my landlord, he was covered in gravy

The others were amazed how dirty he was

How I was, but I said,

He never took a bath,

He never takes a bath,

So why, why don’t we just shoot him?

Björk

Why don’t you shoot him?

Why don’t you shoot him?

Why don’t you shoot him?

Why don’t you just shoot him?

Einar

I said that’s no polite manner to behave in But something like that I was too drunk to remember

I said, he can’t suffer the cold water

He’ll die!

He’ll die!

They said no way, José!

I said, my name ain’t José

He said yes it is But I think he was already dead

He suffered a stroke in the bath

So why don’t you shoot him?

Why don’t you shoot him?

Björk

Why don’t you shoot him?

Why don’t you shoot him?

Why don’t you shoot him?

Why don’t you just shoot him?

Einar

I said oh no And he was so dirty

But why give him a bath?

Why don’t you just give him a bullet

Björk

Why don’t you shoot him?

Why don’t you shoot him?

Why don’t you shoot him?

Einar

In the head?
