Suicide Song

D
I know I'm unhappy
 A
I know things aren't right
 G                                         D
For instance last week I got drunk every night
I know that I'm angry
I know I'm afraid
I rarely make love I mostly get laid
I know I'm unhealthy
No doctor would doubt
 G                                        D    A
My dreams are all bad & my hairs falling out
G                                                        Em
When you get the blues & you want shoot yourself in the head
 Em
It's alright, it's alright
      G
Go ahead
Do the monkey do the pony
Do the slop do the boogaloo twist
Cut your throat, Cut your throat Cut your wrist
Middle 8
  D                 G
When you tire of wordly toil
  D                G
Shuffle off this mortal coil
  D              G
Turn your body back to soil
  C   D
It's OK, It's OK
When you get hung up
Hang yourself up by the neck
What the hell, what the hell, what the heck

Copyright Loudon Wainwright III 1971

They don’t write em like that anymore. What do morose teenagers listen to these days?
