《Richard Cory》歌词

[00:00:02] Richard Cory-Simon & Garfunkel

[00:00:10] They say that Richard Cory owns one half of this whole town

[00:00:16] With political connections to spread his wealth around

[00:00:22] Born into society a banker's only child

[00:00:27] He had everything a man could want: power grace and style

[00:00:35] But I work in his factory

[00:00:41] And I curse the life I'm living

[00:00:43] And I curse my poverty

[00:00:46] And I wish that I could be

[00:00:49] Oh I wish that I could be

[00:00:53] Oh I wish that I could be

[00:00:56] Richard Cory

[00:01:02] The papers print his picture almost everywhere he goes:

[00:01:08] Richard Cory at the opera Richard Cory at a show

[00:01:13] And the rumor of his parties and the orgies on his yacht

[00:01:19] Oh he surely must be happy with everything he's got

[00:01:27] But I work in his factory

[00:01:33] And I curse the life I'm living

[00:01:35] And I curse my poverty

[00:01:38] And I wish that I could be

[00:01:41] Oh I wish that I could be

[00:01:44] Oh I wish that I could be

[00:01:47] Richard Cory

[00:01:54] He freely gave to charity he had the common touch

[00:01:59] And they were grateful for his patronage and thanked him very much

[00:02:05] So my mind was filled with wonder when the evening headlines read:

[00:02:12] "Richard Cory went home last night and put a bullet through his head "

[00:02:21] But I work in his factory

[00:02:26] And I curse the life I'm living

[00:02:29] And I curse my poverty

[00:02:32] And I wish that I could be

[00:02:35] Oh I wish that I could be

[00:02:38] Oh I wish that I could be

[00:02:43] Richard Cory
