Daniel Day Lewis as Bill Poole
I am Bill The Butcher
Many thanks to Kathyddl
I wear a big, tall hat
But I am no silly
Pussycat
I kill for pleasure
I kill for fun
I use my knives
I don't need a gun
I love my woman
Who collects trophy ears
But when I leave her
I'll use my cleaver
I plot, and I plan
When I kill a man
I make a choice cut
With a knife in his gut
I lift my knife
When I take a life
I slash, and brutally slit
I never just, sit, sit, sit
I have many things I have to do
Many people I need to screw
Boss Tweed needs my brutality
To force Five Points to see reality
I killed a man by the name of Vallon
Spilled his blood by the gallon
I helped him from this life depart
By stabbing him in his beating heart
I made Amsterdam join the fun
He was Vallon's only son
I placed his hand upon the knife
And forced him to take his father's life
One day, Amsterdam and I will meet
We will meet out on the street
We will meet eye to eye
One will live, and one will die
I am Bill The Butcher
I wear a big, tall hat
But, I am no silly
Pussycat
