Rivermaya
Hangman (I Shot The Walrus)
Part 1:
[Intro]
Promise myself
To love only myself
I don't need anybody, need anybody
Yeah
[Verse 1]
Step on the plate about a hundred times
Complaining while (?) gets so stale
Talk like your spells trouble boy
But trouble, I know well
You're a fool to think I got your back
'Cause what you got to give can only get me halfway
You preach that the priest can save you
Beware, his belly of the beast
[Chorus 1]
Take you away
Take you away
Hey, hey
[Verse 2]
Came to see your handiwork
But I wasn't impressed
By the way you spun tales, turning (?)
And all eyes wild seem to be looking your way
(?) the perfect picture
Take him away
Take him away
[Chorus 2]
Take him away
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
[Segue]

Part 2:
[Verse 3]
Koo-koo-ka-choo I shot the eggman
Under an April morning sky
Immersed in capuccino
And dirty magazines
Like David Sylvian in my dreams
So from the second floor
A violent sound like laughter
Someone screams "St. Francis Square police!"
Pictures in the pond
Floating rather pointlessly
Sont les mots qui vont
"Please knock me down!"
Everyone says he was first
To be king of the underground
Finally, finally, Dottee, home and free
Portobello weekender, just you and me
[Segue]
Part 3:
[Bridge]
Love, promise myself
Love on myself
Don't need anybody
Take me away, take me away
Take me away, take me away
(Away, away)
[Outro]
Take him away, take him away
Take him away, oh!
