Fed up with "made you look"
and dirty crooks without a clue
They all wear the same face
And it says, "Hangman, I'm on to you"

commit this to memory
the bright ideas always get lost along the way
Last call for medicine

I never meant to hide anything
but I'll never tell the truth
[Chorus]
Commit this to memory (commit this to memory)
Commit this to memory (commit this to memory)

So shower me in a chorus of compliments
and verse I don't deserve
I might run but I'll never hide

and with wine we salute all our bitterness
Fed up with "made you look"
and dirty crooks without a clue
They all wear the same face
and it says, "Hangman I'm on to you"
