Face The Hangman [outtake From Open Up And Say....ahh!] Lyrics - Crack A Smile... And More - Poison

Friday night at midnight 

Looking for what I need 

I heard a tale that somewhere 

That a dude had a real go at me 

So like a rat race cowboy 

I slipped into the human zoo 

Headed down some trouble 

Got myself a drink or two 

Well, I took to the streets and I took to the bars 

Marched right in but I didnt get far 

Manager said, hey boy theres the door 

But I didnt leave until I evened the score 

And now I gotta face the hangman 

Gotta pay for what I done 

I gotta face the hangman 

Or by the noose I swing in the morning sun 

Like a tipsy gypsy 

Looking like Id been had 

But like the story says 

This wild-eyed boy is bad 

I got a police squad car 

Taxi to the local slam 

They said, son youre gonna pay for what youve done 

But I dont give a damn 

Just cause I like to drink and dance all night 

An alleycat brawl in an old fist fight 

Give me no lip boy or Ill kick you in the mouth 

Watch you head fly north and your teeth fly south 

Now I gotta face the hangman 

Gotta pay for what I done 

I gotta face the hangman 

Or by the noose I swing in the morning sun 

No, no, no no 

No, no, no 

Now the judge looked and me and said 

"That boy he definitely be guilty" 

Ooh, let him swing 

Now I gotta face the hangman 

I gotta pay for what I done 

See I gotta face the hangman 

Or by the noose I swing in the morning sun 

I gotta face the hangman 

Gotta pay for what I done 

Said I gotta face the hangman 

Or by the noose I swing in the morning sun
