Carte Blanche (shadow)
miscellaneous owl

He gives me deadly kisses
Love like the bullet loves the gun
He shoots to kill without a second thought
And I know that I should probably run

God help me for craving
The chance to lick the boot
Of a sharp-dressed psychopath
In a Savile Row suit

I don't need to show a badge, he says
Cause villains get what they deserve
He smoothes the creases in his cummerbund
And I feel shaken, I feel stirred

God help me for craving
The chance to lick the boot
Of a sharp-dressed psychopath
In a Savile Row suit

He's always had carte blanche
He's always taken what he wants
And now what he wants is me
I'm afraid that all I'll be
Is fodder for his myth
Just another toxic fantasy
Black ops, red flags, and one-night stands
Cock the gun, my love, and start the dance
It ends up the same way, no matter what I say,
I give the killer what he wants
Carte blanche

Well, this is fantastic. I love the strange vibe, with that super-atmospheric vibe that kinda conjures up Westerns and / or the desert as well as working as a Bond theme. The switch from the sparse verse into that intriguing, slightly menacing (pre-)chorus is perfect, especially the vibraslap (!) and the a-ha-ha! backing vocals. Some fantastic chord changes when the chorus does finally arrive at the end, dramatic and thrilling!
