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
