Slim Jim was a stool pidgeon
  On the payroll of the f.b.i.
  Reverend Fred sold instant religion
  With a license from the man in the sky
  Billy the kid was a gunslinger
  Edgar Wallace was a dead ringer
  Me, I'm just a rock'n'roll singer
    Keyhole Pete was a keen watcher
  Had a telephoto lens in each eye
  Jack the ripper was a cool stalker
  But his birds no longer fly
  James Joyce was a mudslinger
  Jesus Christ was a forgiver
  Me, I'm just a rock'n'roll singer
    I'm not fakin' it
  Foolin' myself that I'm makin' it
  I'm not fakin' it
    Tricky dicky was a fast talker
  But his promises were always a lie
  Nostradamus was a doomwatcher
  Predicted when we're gonna die
  Cleopatra was a love giver
  Jesse James was a born killer
  Me, I'm just a rock'n'roll singer
