He had it coming he had it coming

He only had himself to blame

If you'd have been there if you'd have seen it

I betcha you would have done the same

You know how people have these little habits

That get you down

Like

Bernie

Bernie like to chew gum no

Not chew Pop

Well I come home one day

And there's Bernie lying' on the couch

Chewing no

Not chewing

Popping

So I said to him I said

Brenie

You pop that gum one more time

And he did

So I took the shotgun off the wall

And I fired two warning shots

Into his head

He had it coming he had it coming

He only had himself to blame

If you'd have been there if you'd have heard it

I betcha you would have done the same

He had it coming he had it coming

He only had himself to blame

If you'd have been there if you'd have seen it

I betcha you would have done the same

He had it coming he had it coming

He only had himself to blame

You know some guys just can't hold their arsenic

He had it coming he had it coming

He took a flower in it's prime

And then he used it and he abused it

It was a murder but not a crime

He had it coming he had it coming

He only had himself to blame

If you'd have been there if you'd have seen it

I betcha you would have done the same

He had it coming he had it coming

Well I was in such a state of shock

I completely blacked out

I can't remember a thing

It wasn't until later

When I was washing the blood off my hands

I even knew they were dead

They had it coming they had it coming

They had it coming

They had it coming

They had it coming all along

I didn't do it but if I done it

How could you tell me that I was wrong

He had it coming he had it coming

He only had himself to blame

If you'd have been there if you'd have seen it

He saw himself as alive

And I saw him dead

The dirty bum bum bum bum bum

The dirty bum bum bum bum bum

They had it coming they had it coming

They had it coming

They had it coming

They had it coming all along

'Cause if they used us and they abused us

How could they tell us that we were wrong

He had it coming he had it coming

He had it coming he had it coming

He only had himself to blame

If you'd have been there

If you'd have been there if you'd have seen it

I betcha you would have done the same

You pop that gum one more time

Single my a**

Ten times

Miért csukott Uncle Sam börtönbe

Number seventeen the spread eagle

Artistic differences

I betcha you would have done the same
