Sniper In The Sky / Charles Whitman Songtext / Lyric

He killed his wife and mother, then packed up his supplies

Like food and guns and ammo, and went out taking lives

At the school observatory, he went to the top

And killed sixteen people, before he could be stopped






Charles Whitman was the school tower hitman

Charles Whitman shot at people and hit them

Charles Whitman had a brain tumor in his head

Charles Whitman was the cause of eighteen people's deaths



He kept on shooting people, the police they tried and tried

To kill Charles Whitman, the sniper in the sky

They finally snuck up on him, surprised him at the top

Then Charles Whitman was gunned down by a cop



Charles Whitman was the school tower hitman

Charles Whitman shot at people and hit them

Charles Whitman had a brain tumor in his head

Charles Whitman was the cause of eighteen people's deaths
