The Lyrics
Dead, they said
We got a little story for you
You thought he was a priest
But he was a...
While you were watin'
For the man you called a friend
He was being strangled
Sorry to tell you the news
That he was killed
He...He...He was shot dead
Oh he stumbled
Cause he had a deep wound
We brought him in
For the autopsy
We don't remember
How exactly he was killed
But you know where
Where to find him now
He...He...He was shot dead
He...He...He was shot dead
Is something wrong
We said
Of course there is
But aren't you dead
We said
No I'm not
You see
I didn't deserve to be
That's not a question
If it was
If it was
Who would answer?
Who would answer?
He...He...He's not shot dead
He...He...He's not shot dead
He...He...He's not shot dead
We got a little story for you
You thought he was a priest
But he was a...
While you were watin'
For the man you called a friend
He was being strangled
Sorry to tell you the news
That he was killed
He...He...He was shot dead
Oh he stumbled
Cause he had a deep wound
We brought him in
For the autopsy
We don't remember
How exactly he was killed
But you know where
Where to find him now
He...He...He was shot dead
He...He...He was shot dead
Is something wrong
We said
Of course there is
But aren't you dead
We said
No I'm not
You see
I didn't deserve to be
That's not a question
If it was
If it was
Who would answer?
Who would answer?
He...He...He's not shot dead
He...He...He's not shot dead
He...He...He's not shot dead
