Track 5. Christopher Dale Flannery (mr. Rent-a-Kill)

. --- [Intro - Cocking Shotgun FX, Screeching Electric Guitar Feedback, Fast Driving Punk Drums, Spoken Monologue] *(Spoken - thick UK accent, raw & psychotic)* "Christopher Dale Flannery... 'Mr. Rent-a-Kill'. Fifteen grand a hit. No conscience, no loyalty, no rules. When Sydney and Melbourne needed a corpse, Chris took the contract." [Verse 1 - Fast Aggressive Punk-Hiphop Beat, Overdriven Bass Guitar, Heavy Guitar Riffs] Started out in Melbourne doing time in the cell, Bouncer on the door, creating his own hell. Got the contract offer, packed his bag with lead, Every name he looked at ended up dead. Moved up to Sydney, working for the Cross, George Freeman’s weapon when he needed a loss. Fifteen-thousand cash inside an envelope tight, Flannery stepped out from the shadows of the night. Roger Rogerson’s partner, gunning down the street, Leaving bloody bodies laid out at his feet. Wore a dark jacket, didn't care who saw, Laughing in the face of the Sydney law. [Pre-Chorus - Screaming Guitar Feedback & Metallic Snare Hits] *(Scratch: "Mr. Rent-a-Kill... fifteen grand... target down!")* Shooting down police, shooting down the hitmen crew, Doing any dirty job the bosses asked him to! [Chorus - Heavy Punk-Rock Hiphop Blast, Wall of Distorted Guitars, Screaming Vocals] **MR. RENT-A-KILL TAKES THE ENTIRE CASH PAY!** Shooting down the rivals in the middle of the day! From the Melbourne brawls to the Sydney war, Leaving bloody corpses on the pavement floor! Yeah, **CHRIS FLANNERY, THE PSYCHO ON THE LOOSE!** *(Scratch: "Hitman for hire... contract closed...")* Walking right into the hangman's noose! [Verse 2 - Fast Pounded Drums, Raw Distortion, Manic Delivery] Got too arrogant, thought he ran the town, Threatened his own bosses, pulling weapons down. Shot at police detective Michael Drury through the glass, Realized his expiration date was coming fast. May nineteen-eighty-five, taxi on the way, Stepped out his apartment on a sunny Sydney day. Walked out to his car, vanished in the air, No body ever found, left an empty chair. Dumped in the Pacific or buried in the dirt, The hitman got hit, ending all the hurt. [Chorus - Heavy Punk-Rock Hiphop Blast, Wall of Distorted Guitars, Screaming Vocals] **MR. RENT-A-KILL TAKES THE ENTIRE CASH PAY!** Shooting down the rivals in the middle of the day! From the Melbourne brawls to the Sydney war, Leaving bloody corpses on the pavement floor! Yeah, **CHRIS FLANNERY, THE PSYCHO ON THE LOOSE!** *(Scratch: "Hitman for hire... contract closed...")* Walking right into the hangman's noose! [Bridge - Stripped Back Bass Riff, Heavy Footsteps, Engine Revving FX] *(Spoken - quiet, cold, deadpan)* "May 9, 1985. He got a call from his boss, stepped into a cab... And Mr. Rent-a-Kill was never seen again." [Chorus - Heavy Punk-Rock Hiphop Blast, Wall of Distorted Guitars, Screaming Vocals] **MR. RENT-A-KILL TAKES THE ENTIRE CASH PAY!** Shooting down the rivals in the middle of the day! From the Melbourne brawls to the Sydney war, Leaving bloody corpses on the pavement floor! Yeah, **CHRIS FLANNERY, THE PSYCHO ON THE LOOSE!** *(Scratch: "Hitman for hire... contract closed...")* Walking right into the hangman's noose! [Outro - Guitar Feedback Fades, Car Door Slam FX, Driving Away Sound, Abrupt Tape-Stop Finish] *(Spoken - calm, cold, deadpan)* "Declared legally dead in 1996. The gun for hire stays missing." *(Subtle vinyl scratch, sudden abrupt tape-stop finish)*
