Killer In
The Village
There’s a
killer in our village
And he’s not
been brought to justice
He’s out there
right now
Walking round a
free man
Because no-one
knows
About his
guilty secret
There’s a
killer in our village
He’s just an
ordinary guy
With a wife and
children
Worrying about
his credit card
And his hefty
mortgage
Perhaps the
same as you and I
There’s a
killer in our village
And everybody
knows his name
They see him
down the pub
And he plays on
all the local teams
They’ve been
known to pat him on the back
When he makes a
winning score
There’s a
killer in our village
Who knows how
to hit a target
He’s top gun at
computer games
With hand/ eye
co-ordination
Second-to-none,
rated excellent
For a special military
job
There’s a
killer in our village
Yet no-one lives
in any fear
He drives over
to the airbase
And he works
his every shift
Then he passes
through security
And descends in
to his bunker
There’s a
killer in our village
But no-one’s
after him
He peers into
his monitor
Yet he’s never
in any danger
A pilot who always
stays at home
And flies the
drones in Afghanistan
