Got some news for you, my friend
Got some noose not news to me
Got some news to screw your friends
Got some noose too tight on meIt's killing me alright, it's killing me alright
You can't even if you try to give us enough ropeGot to choose between your friends
Got to choose without regret
Got to choose just what you say
Got to choose and not forgetIt's killing me alright, it's killing me alright
You can't even if you try to give us enough
You can't even if you try to give us enough ropeBrittle rope burning around my hands
Brittle rope burning around my arms
Brittle rope burning around my neck
Burning around my neck in smoking flamesIt's killing me alright, it's killing me alrightYou want a sucker, a sucker to suck on
A suck on, what you're sucking?
A sucker to suck on
A suck on, what you're sucking?A sucker to suck on
A suck on, what you're sucking?
A sucker to suck on
A suck on, what you're sucking?Got to save all that pretense
Got to save all that's not real
Got to save some privacy
Got to save some of your mindIt's killing me alright, it's killing me alright
You can't even if you try to give us enough
You can't even if you try to give us enough rope
