Life is easier when one of us is dead

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey

I will wait a year

Noone starts to hear an accidental fall

And they won't suspect a thing at all

Wait for the summer

We'll sleep when we wanna

Don't tell your mother

We'll leave when we

We'll leave when we wanna

And I have dreamed about it

Now I read about it

And I can't grieve about it

And I can't heeeeeeeeeey

Someone help me

Someone help me

Someone help me please

Someone help me

Someone help me

Someone help me please

It's an accidental fall

And they won't suspect a thing at all

Wait for the summer

We'll leave when we wanna

Look at your mother

Is that who ya

Is that who ya wanna?

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Ooooooh Oooooh

Ooooooh Oooooh

Tell my lady here what I was drinking

And in not too long, won't she start screaming?

What a proud old man, what was she thinking?

I hear her voice sometimes, when I've been dreaming

Tell my lady here what I was dreaming

And in not too long, what was I thinking?

What a proud old man, won't she start screaming?

I hear voice sometimes, when I've been…

When I've been drinking

Rising rising falling down

I'm rising rising falling down

I'm rising rising falling down

I'm rising rising falling down

I'll kill my baby with a .45

One last shot right into her head

And I'm falling falling falling down

SINK INTO THE RIVER!

SINK INTO THE RIVER!

Tell my lady here what I was drinking

I'll kill my baby with a .45

One last shot right into her head

And I'm falling falling falling down

SINK INTO THE RIVER!

SINK INTO THE RIVER!

I hear her voice sometimes

When I've been

When I've been drinking

Rising rising falling down

I'm rising fising falling down

I'm rising rising falling down

I'm rising rising falling down
