Lyrics

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 [Guitar Solo] 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
