MURDER IN HIGH HEELS
Simmons/Weissman

[Rhy. Fig 1 w/ End 1] (4x)

[Rhy. Fig 1 w/ End 1] (2x)
Hey, with a sleight of hand and then a word of mouth 
She's a cat been caged too long and now she's breakin' out 
Well, get it straight, you better cross your heart 
'Cause sparks are gonna fly, let me tell you what it's all about 
[Rhy. Fig 1 / End 2]
Better run for cover, babe, she's gonna make her move 
You know she could, she's a get rich bitch 
You better get her while the gettin's good 

[Rhy. Fig 2a w/ End 1 and Rhy. Fig 2b w/ End 1]
She's a vision in leather, like salt on a wound 
[Rhy. Fig 2a w/ End 2 and Rhy. Fig 2b w/ End 2]
Just a turn of a knob and she's real fine tuned 

[Rhy. Fig 3a] (4x)
But she's murder in high-heels 

[Rhy. Fig 1 w/ End 1] (2x)
She ain't the girl next door worth waitin' for 
Well you're playin' with the fire,
a pool of sweat's lyin' on the floor 
She'll bring you to your knees, and when you're laid to rest 
She's gonna give you something, she's gonna get it off her chest 
[Rhy. Fig 1 w/ End 2]
(Yeah yeah yeah) 

[Rhy. Fig 2a w/ End 1 and Rhy. Fig 2b w/ End 1]
She's a vision in leather, like salt on a wound 
[Rhy. Fig 2a w/ End 2 and Rhy. Fig 2b w/ End 2]
Just a turn of a knob and she's real fine tuned - here she comes 

[Solo over Rhy. Fig 3a (7x)]
[Rhy. Fig 3b]

[Rhy. Fig 2a w/ End 1, Rhy. Fig 2b w/ End 1 and Riff 1]
She's a vision in leather, like salt on a wound 
[Rhy. Fig 2a w/ End 2, Rhy. Fig 2b w/ End 2]
Just a turn of a knob and she's real fine tuned 

[Rhy. Fig 3a (2x) w/ Outro solo]
But she's murder in high heels 

[Rhy. Fig 4] (3x)
