Oh I wish that I could be...

Richard Cory



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.

But 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.

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.

But 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.

He freely gave to charity, he had the common touch,
And they were grateful for his patronage and thanked him very much,
So my mind was filled with wonder when the evening headlines read:
"Richard Cory went home last night and put a bullet through his head."

That's what I was going to say. Now I have that stupid song stuck in my head.

That's the worst song to have stuck in your head, more so when you're stuck in a Limo for 3 hours with a nutcase hooked on youtube crank songs.

A Toys R Us Kid? Jessie's girl?

When I read the title my first thought was...

Considering his outcome I hope that things aren't quite that bad yet.
If they are, for what it's worth, I hope that you see some relief soon.
I believe that everyone has a purpose good or bad and I'm aware that is a naive or outdated way of thinking but, it's how I prefer to believe so...

Good luck to you and again, hoping things can turn around for you.
You've got to be tough as nails with all that you've been through!

The videos are not available in my country. I guess someone believe they'll loose money or something if I hear them.
