Lyrics
Hangman
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Fed up with "made you look"
And dirty crooks without a clue
They all wear the same face
And it says "hangman, i'm on to you"
Hangman, it's not your fault
Commit this to memory
The bright ideas always get lost along the way
Last call for medicine
So count me in and turn me loose
I never meant to hurt anything
But i never tell the truth
[chorus]
Commit this to memory
(commit this to memory)
Commit this to memory
(commit this to memory)
Commit this to memory
(commit this to memory)
Commit this to memory
I'm just a guy that never tried
I'm just a stupid fuck with brilliant luck
And sometimes a bright idea
So shower me in a chorus of compliments
And verse i don't deserve
I might run but i'll never hide
Hey, that's not right
You can't complain
"everything's gonna be just fine"
Said the pen to the dotted line
If memory serves, then mark my words
This game's called "catch me if you can"
An with wine we salute all out bitterness
Fed up with "made you look"
And dirty crooks without a clue
They all wear the same face
And it say "hangman i'm on to you"
