Streetwalkers - Hangman lyrics

Chapman-Whitney Pulled the switch, it cold, black as pitch And shut the night off Was it the hangman's jerk or just the trap-doors work Oh, that choked him right off? He had no time to have any say on that cold dark day He just willing that trap, snap, shut again. Then the tensions noose, it hit his nervous juice And set him dancin', dancin' lightly on the winds smile The hangman's knot, hit him cold then hot And then it choked him, checked him, cut him up and broke away his lifestyle, yeah. He had no time to have any say on that cold dark day He just willing that trap, snap, shut again, oh yeah. He had billowed eyes of sore surrounds Blackened cheeks and stubbled jowls, they're still bleeding He had his feet got torn from treading stone and nail Angles ripped and bruised still flail but he ain't breathing, no, he ain't breathing. He had no time to have any say on that cold, cold dark day He just willing that trap, snap, shut again, ohhhh.
