D.I. - Richard Hung Himself lyrics

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.
