Richard Hung Himself Lyrics - Richard Hung Himself - D I

Needles were stabbed in to the walls 

The executioner's curtain call 

Fighting back he found his life drowning 

And there was no way out 

Cause Richard hung himself, Richard hung himself 

It happened just the other day 

Jesus come and pushed him off the shelf 

He thought he'd find a better way than 

Stealing and slamming and maiming and ramming 

The death who wears black curtains wears clothes what's right 

The roof kicked out the rope tied to the rafters 

A quick kick of the chair and it was all through 

If Richie only knew 

Cause Richard hung himself, Richard hung himself 

It happened just the other day 

Jesus come and push him off the shelf 

He thought he found a better way 

His life suddenly flashed! 

right before his eyes 

What a swingin' guy 

Turnin' grey with mold, yuck 

This is how he died 

Give it up, give it up, throw it all away 

Boiling acid bath 

Pulmonary wrath 

Feel the pulling surge 

It won't let you go 

Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all a.. throw it all a.. Throw it all away 

Swingin' in his room Richard won't come out to play 

Cause Richie hung himself the other day 

Oh how the world seems to fly by 

His death the final high? 

Cause Richard hung himself, Richard hung himself 

It happened just the other day 

Jesus come and push him off the shelf 

He thought he found a better way by 

Stealing and tearing and ripping and slamming and tripping and scoring and 

laughing and laughing and screaming and hurting and tearing and being and 

taking the body goodbye to you Richard 

I gotta get out 

What do I do? Die 

Richard hung himself...cause Richard...swung himself...Richie hung himself.
