lyrics

I’m usually no alarmist
But I’ve got this sense of impending doom
I keep thinking about her
But she forgets about me as soon as I leave the room

And I guess nothing’s for certain
But I’m thinking that I’m too young to die
And though I keep trying to kiss her
If I get too close, I should kiss my soul goodbye

Oh, cause she’s a reaper
Ominously hovering, waiting for the time to strike
Oh, she seemed like a keeper
But the lady is a genuine gentleman killer, alright

Not that I consider myself an optimist
But this paranoia is pushing the extreme
I went through her clothes for any long black hooded items
And when she went into the kitchen, I could have sworn I heard somebody scream

Oh, she’s a reaper
Ominously hovering, waiting for the time to strike
Oh, and I just can’t cheat her
Because the lady is a genuine gentleman killer, alright

I found no fossils in her closet
But with a girl like her, it’s the present that hold the worst surprise
Last night I stopped by uninvited
And there she was cozying up to a couple other guys
I can’t believe my eyes

Oh, she’s a reaper
Ominously hovering, waiting for the time to strike
Oh, and I’m sinking deeper
Because the lady is a genuine gentleman killer, alright
