Astley in the Noose Songtext
Oh, Astley in the noose
He hasn′t got a use
But he's trying
Trying to be someone
Trying to take like a man if you can
Sing an old song
Well, I get back to the rope
Wash your mouth out with soap
And if you must sing
Sing an oldie
But sing it quickly
Oh spare me
Don′t beg, don't beg
I wouldn't kill you even if you paid me
Don′t beg, don′t beg
I wouldn't kill you even if you paid me
Oh, Astley, it′s the truth
My patience's at its roof
It′s at its ceiling
It's just this feeling
That given half a choice
A life without your voice seems more appealing
Don′t beg, don't beg
I wouldn't kill you even if you paid me
Don′t beg, don′t beg
I wouldn't kill you even if you paid me
But don′t take this to heart
It's all to do with art and entertainment
I sing this lament
But from you and from your peers
It′s abuse to both me ears
I rest my case here
Don't beg, don′t beg
I wouldn't kill you even if you paid me
Don't beg, don′t beg
I wouldn′t kill you even if you paid me
Don't beg, don′t beg
I wouldn't kill you even if you paid me
Don′t beg, don't beg
I wouldn′t kill you even if you paid me
(Did anybody like it)
(Do you think it might offend him)
(Who cares)
He hasn′t got a use
But he's trying
Trying to be someone
Trying to take like a man if you can
Sing an old song
Well, I get back to the rope
Wash your mouth out with soap
And if you must sing
Sing an oldie
But sing it quickly
Oh spare me
Don′t beg, don't beg
I wouldn't kill you even if you paid me
Don′t beg, don′t beg
I wouldn't kill you even if you paid me
Oh, Astley, it′s the truth
My patience's at its roof
It′s at its ceiling
It's just this feeling
That given half a choice
A life without your voice seems more appealing
Don′t beg, don't beg
I wouldn't kill you even if you paid me
Don′t beg, don′t beg
I wouldn't kill you even if you paid me
But don′t take this to heart
It's all to do with art and entertainment
I sing this lament
But from you and from your peers
It′s abuse to both me ears
I rest my case here
Don't beg, don′t beg
I wouldn't kill you even if you paid me
Don't beg, don′t beg
I wouldn′t kill you even if you paid me
Don't beg, don′t beg
I wouldn't kill you even if you paid me
Don′t beg, don't beg
I wouldn′t kill you even if you paid me
(Did anybody like it)
(Do you think it might offend him)
(Who cares)
