O’Malley’s Bar (Part 2) Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Oh, my god
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, I said oh yeah

[Verse 1]
"I have no free will," I sang
As I flew about the murder
Mrs. Richard Holmes, she screamed
Well, you really should have heard her

[Verse 2]
I sang and I laughed, I howled and I wept
I panted and I squealed
I blew a hole in Mrs. Richard Holmes
Who used her husband as a shield

[Verse 3]
He screamed, "You are an evil man"
And I paused a while to wonder
If I have no free will then how can I
Be morally culpable, I wonder?

[Verse 4]
I shot Richard Holmes in the stomach
I said, "It felt good to take your life"
I'm not sure, but I think that he thanked me
As he lay down next to his wife
