Though many think that Mama killed a man, that doesn't really make much sense. Why would Mama do that? However, thanks to a very useful and strategically-placed comma, the actual lyric is "Mama, just killed a man" and Freddie Mercury is confessing to his mother that he has killed off his old persona and that he will now live a life true to himself, knowing that this will cause his mother pain, which he never intended for her. Deep, huh?
In Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody, who "just killed a man."
