You could hear him screaming

As you looked to be on the door

His only son was lying in a hip upon the floor

And from his rests that open wide

His life has float from deep inside

And in his hand a note that read

It's better if I'm dead

'Cause if so our life was back, all the times we never had

I can't say it's been nice because it wasn't

And, mama, please forgive me if I've missed the rug

But you can have it clean tomorrow

Oh, and you'll find some excuse to tell your guard in the

club

I'm sure they'll all express their sorrow

You could see them running

As they tried to get some help

Yeah, the neighboors all were borin' in to say how bad they

felt

How could this happen in a town

I hope it doesn't get around

And in his hand a note that read

It's better if I'm dead

'Cause if so our life was back, all the times we never had

I can't say it's been nice because it wasn't

And, daddy, even destiny have a good sign

'Cause here's your checks for cutting all my hair off

Oh, and from today I'll never let you down again

'Cause now your biggest problem taken care of
