license to kill

man thinks 'cause he rules the earth he can do with it as he please

and if things don't change soon

he will

oh

man has invented his doom

first step was touching the moon. now there's a woman on my block

she just sit there as the night grows still

she say who gonna take away his license to kill?

now

they take him and they teach him and they groom him for life

and they set him on a path where he's bound to get ill

then they bury him with stars

sell his body like they do used cars. now

there's a woman on my block

she just sit there facing the hill

she say who gonna take away his license to kill?

now

he's hell-bent for destruction

he's afraid and confused

and his brain has been mismanaged with great skill

all he believe are his eyes

and his eyes

they just tell him lies. but there's a woman on my block

sitting there in a cold chill

she say who gonna take away his license to kill?

ya may be a noisemaker

spirit maker

heartbreaker

backbreaker

leave no stone unturned

may be an actor in a plot

that might be all that you got

'til your error you clearly learn. now he worships at an altar of a stagnant pool

and when he sees his reflection

he's fulfilled

oh

man is opposed to fair play

he wants it all and he wants it his way. now

there's a woman on my blocks

she just sit there as the night grows still

she say who gonna take away his license to kill?
