I remember it as plain as day 
Although it happened in the dark of the night. 
I was strolling through the streets of Paris 
And it was cold it was starting to rain. 
And then I heard a piercing scream 
And I rushed to the scene of the crime 
But all I found was the butchered remains 
Of two girls lay side by side. 

Murders in the Rue Morgue 
Someone call the Gendarmes 
Murders in the Rue Morgue 
Run before the killers go free 

There's some people coming down the street 
At last there's someone heard my call 
I can't understand why they're pointing at me 
I never done nothing at all. 
But I must have got some blood on my hands 
Because everyone's shouting at me 
I can't speak French so I couldn't explain 
And like a fool I started running away. 

Murders in the Rue Morgue 
Someone call the Gendarmes 
Murders in the Rue Morgue 
Am I ever gonna be free. 

And now I've gotta get away from the arms of the law. 
All France is looking for me. 
I've gotta find my way across the border for sure 
Down the south to Italy. 

Murders in the Rue Morgue 
Someone call the Gendarmes 
Murders in the Rue Morgue 
I'm never going home. 

Well I made it to the border at last 
But I can't erase the scene from my mind 
Anytime somebody stares at me, well 
I just start running blind 
Well I'm moving through the shadows at night 
Away from the staring eyes 
Any day they'll be looking for me 
'Cause I know I show the signs of... 

Murders in the Rue Morgue 
Running from the Gendarmes 
Murders in the Rue Morgue 
Running from the arms of the law 

Murders in the Rue Morgue 
Running from the Gendarmes 
Murders in the Rue Morgue 
Am I ever gonna be free 

It took so long and I'm getting so tired 
I'm running out of places to hide 
Should I return to the scene of the crime 
Where the two young victims died 
If I could go to somebody for help 
It'd get me out of trouble for sure 
But I know that it's on my mind 
That my doctor said I've done it before. 

Murders in the Rue Morgue 
They're never gonna find me 
Murders in the Rue Morgue 
I'm never going home.
