Simon And Garfunkel - Richard Cory Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • They say that richard cory owns one half of this whole town,
  • With political connections to spread his wealth around.
  • Born into society, a bankers only child,
  • He had everything a man could want: power, grace, and style.
  • But I work in his factory
  • And I curse the life Im living
  • And I curse my poverty
  • And I wish that I could be,
  • Oh, I wish that I could be,
  • Oh, I wish that I could be
  • Richard cory.
  • The papers print his picture almost everywhere he goes:
  • Richard cory at the opera, richard cory at a show.
  • And the rumor of his parties and the orgies on his yacht!
  • Oh, he surely must be happy with everything hes got.
  • But I work in his factory
  • And I curse the life Im living
  • And I curse my poverty
  • And I wish that I could be,
  • Oh, I wish that I could be,
  • Oh, I wish that I could be
  • Richard cory.
  • He freely gave to charity, he had the common touch,
  • And they were grateful for his patronage and thanked him very much,
  • So my mind was filled with wonder when the evening headlines read:
  • Richard cory went home last night and put a bullet through his head.
  • But I work in his factory
  • And I curse the life Im living
  • And I curse my poverty
  • And I wish that I could be,
  • Oh, I wish that I could be,
  • Oh, I wish that I could be
  • Richard cory.
