I used to know a guy named Harry
He carried on about needing an escape
I never did find him scary
But the fun loving guy kinda lost his way
See Harry was a friend of mine
Hearing voices in his mind
Telling him to kill his innocence
He turned deranged and villainous
Jumping off the roof into the abyss
Harry joined the army and found his bliss
Watching the fire turn green
He don’t use jelly, he uses magazines
A fiend for the red dot sight
Harry never slept at night
Causing more delirium
That’s when he started hearing em
Thoughts of murder, seeing bombers burn
Harry couldn’t wait to take his turn
Popping pills to stay awake
The war ended but he stayed in outer space
Harry didn’t care for dinner dates
He saw for himself a different fate
While I was turning 808’s to drum breaks
He was building bombs not seeing straight
Joined a local group at the VFW
Wherever we went, Harry and them knew
My fiancé was a politician
True to her beliefs unlike the rest
She wasn’t corrupt like Harry
His crew saw the government as a threat
Death weighed heavy on Harry’s head
Like a crown of thorns on a prince
He agreed to be the one to blow up the spot
And pop the good year blimp
Strapped with explosives ready to send a message
My fiancé and her colleagues ran towards the exit
.... But it was too late
One click of a detonator and he sealed their fates
Now I wander in depression, watching the daily news
One day I’ll get my revenge on the rest of Harry’s crew
