Simon & Garfunkel - Richard Cory 1966 live
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, 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, 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 they
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."
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.
