Does anyone remember Tony
|
A quiet boy, little over weight
|
He had breasts like a girl
|
When I wasn't too busy feeling lonely
|
I'd stare over his shoulder
|
At a map of the world
|
He always finished all his homework
|
Raised his hand in homerooom
|
He called the morning attendance
|
With the pledge alligence to the gloom
|
|
Hey Tony, what's so good about dying
|
He said I think I might do a little dying today
|
He looked in the mirror and saw
|
A little faggot starin back at him
|
Pulled out a gun and blew himself away
|
|
I hated every day of high school
|
It's funny, I guess you did too
|
Its funny how I never knew
|
There I was sitting right behind you
|
They wrote it in the local rag
|
Death comes to the local fag
|
I guess you finally stopped believing
|
That any hope would ever find you
|
Well I know that story,
|
I was sitting right behind you
|
|
Hey Tony, what's so good about dying
|
He said I think I might do a little dying today
|
He looked in the mirror and saw
|
A little faggot starin back at him
|
Pulled out a gun and blew himself away
|
|
Hey Tony whats so good about dying, dying
|
Hey Tony whats so good about dying, dying
|
Hey Tony, what's so good about dying
|
He said I think I might do a little dying today
|
He looked in the mirror and saw
|
A little faggot starin back at him
|
Pulled out a gun and blew himself away
|
Pulled out a gun and blew himself away
|
Pulled out a gun and blew himself away
|
Tony...
