Freddie Mercury
Bohemian Rhapsody (Live at the Hammersmith Odeon, 24th December 1975)
[Spoken Word: Freddie Mercury]
Now then, we're gonna do a nice tasty little medley for you, just like the one we did the other day, yes, and we're going to start off with a little segment from a number called “Bohemian Rhapsody”
[Verse 1]
Mama, just killed a man
Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger now he's dead
Mama, life had just begun
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
Mama, ooh
Didn't mean to make you cry
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters
[Verse 2]
Too late, my time has come
Sends shivers down my spine
Body's aching all the time
Goodbye, everybody, I've got to go
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Mama, ooh
I don't want to die
Sometimes wish I'd never been born at all, oh
[Guitar Solo, Transition to “Killer Queen”]
