A Note That Read

Bert Sommer

    You could hear him screaming
    As you looked to be on the door
    His only son was lying in a hip upon the floor

    And from his rests that open wide
    His life has float from deep inside

    And in his hand a note that read
    It's better if I'm dead
    'Cause if so our life was back, all the times we never had
    I can't say it's been nice because it wasn't

    And, mama, please forgive me if I've missed the rug
    But you can have it clean tomorrow
    Oh, and you'll find some excuse to tell your guard in the

    club
    I'm sure they'll all express their sorrow

    You could see them running
    As they tried to get some help
    Yeah, the neighboors all were borin' in to say how bad they

    felt

    How could this happen in a town
    I hope it doesn't get around

    And in his hand a note that read
    It's better if I'm dead
    'Cause if so our life was back, all the times we never had
    I can't say it's been nice because it wasn't

    And, daddy, even destiny have a good sign
    'Cause here's your checks for cutting all my hair off
    Oh, and from today I'll never let you down again
    'Cause now your biggest problem taken care of
