Everyday is a long disguise Everyday is a compromise I can tell a blatant lie While looking you deep in your eye
Everyday I look for a sign What triggers your death Triggers mine We will ride together in the end
[Chorus] Assassin, assassin Show me paradise Life is not the same Assassin, assassin Show me paradise I'll never be the same
Twenty years, a loyal friend But now the knife is in my hand I can't begin to understand How I've been deceived
Show me visions out of time Greater than my stinking life If I serve you to the end I will find some peace
[Chorus]
Baksheesh, Baksheesh I'd sell my sainted mother For another glimpse of paradise Baksheesh, baksheesh Twenty years, deep cover For another glimpse of your paradise
