Jailbird  jailbird singing through the wires
Cuz  his cage is closed and he's stuck inside
so  "Who's gonna hear my 'help me help me' now?"
yeah  "Who's gonna hear my 'help me help me' now?"
Hangman  hangman knocking on the door
Says  "Heaven can't wait to have you no more
So  who's gonna hear your 'help me help me' now?
yeah  who's gonna hear your 'help me help me' now?
...'better  go find another best friend somehow'."
"Angel  angel coming for me now
On  eagles' wings down through the clouds
Save  my soul 'fore they lay my old body down
Save  my soul 'fore they lay my old body down
So  there's nothing but skin and bones
Hiding  under a dead man's clothes
Six  feet deep in a black box Underground
