I had a friend that took a belt Took a belt and hung himself Hung himself in the doorway of the apartment where he lived His woman and his little bro Came home from the grocery store Only to find him dangling in the apartment where he lived

I had a friend who shaved his head Put his Doctor Martens on And drew such wondrous pictures in the apartment where he lived He praised my creativity Though he spoke sarcastically Oh, the conversations there in the apartment where he lived

I had a friend who took his belt Took the belt and hung himself Hung himself in the doorway of the apartment where he lived Rock, she thought him spiteful Ler, he thought him pitiful Me, I've never been back to the apartment where he lived

I had a friend that took a belt Took a belt and hung himself Hung himself in the doorway of the apartment where he lived I had a friend that took a belt Took a belt and hung himself Hung himself in the doorway of the apartment where he lived I had a friend that took a belt Took a belt and hung himself Hung himself in the doorway of the apartment where he lived I had a friend that took a belt Took a belt and hung himself He hung himself in the doorway of the apartment where he lived I had a friend that took a belt Took a belt and hung himself Hung himself in the doorway of the apartment where he lived
