lyrics

You're invited to witness a hanging where I will be the host
Come one come all and raise a glass my ending deserves a toast
one said "hangings far to good for him" lets see the bastard roast
I can't complain for I shot dead the Prime Minister
If you're fishing for a reason no reason will I give
someone had to die that day be thankful I let you live
Whats important's not a reason but the friend that you were with
were you holding hands the day I shot the Prime Minister?
For your curiosity of nthe details from that day
I'll share with you the very last words i'd hear him say
He said "All I tried to was change the clouds to white from grey"
Its no wonder I shot dead the Prime Minister.
From the rope I bid you all farewell to give the angels chace
I pray I find an open heart to take this sorry face.
I'll wait behind them pearly gates for he who takes my place
Ill stroke the soul who dares dead the Prime Minister.
