simon & garfunkel - richard cory (live) كلمات أغنية
[intro]
this is a song that comes out of the, uh, second album
the sounds of silence album
which is an adaptation of an edwin arlington robinson poem
written many years ago and studied by myself in junior high school
poem is called “richard cory”
[verse 1]
they say that richard cory owns
one half of this whole town
with political connections
to spread his wealth around
born into society
a banker’s only child
he had everything a man could want
power, grace and style
[chorus]
but i, i work in his factory
and i curse the life i’m living
and i curse my poverty
and i wish that i could be
oh, i wish that i could be
oh, i wish that i could be
richard cory
[verse 2]
the papers print his picture
almost everywhere he goes
richard cory at the opera
richard cory at a show
and the rumor of his parties
and the orgies on his yacht
oh, he surely must be happy
with everything he’s got
[chorus]
but i, i work in his factory
and i curse the life i’m living
and i curse my poverty
and i wish that i could be
oh, i wish that i could be
oh, i wish that i could be
richard cory
[verse 3]
he freely gave to charity
he had the common touch
and they were grateful for his patronage
and they thanked him very much
so my mind was filled with wonder
when the evening headlines read
“richard cory went home last night
put a bullet through his head”
[chorus]
but i, i work in his factory
and i curse the life i’m living
and i curse my poverty
and i wish that i could be
oh, i wish that i could be
oh, i wish that i could be
richard cory
