Tony Lyrics by Patty Griffin

Tony Lyrics

    Does anyone remember tony
    A quiet boy, little over weight
    He had breasts like a girl
    When i wasn't too busy feeling lonely
    I'd stare over his shoulder
    At a map of the world
    He always finished all his homework
    Raised his hand in homerooom
    He called the morning attendance
    With the pledge alligence to the gloom

    Hey tony, what's so good about dying
    He said i think i might do a little dying today
    He looked in the mirror and saw
    A little faggot starin back at him
    Pulled out a gun and blew himself away

    I hated every day of high school
    It's funny, i guess you did too
    Its funny how i never knew
    There i was sitting right behind you
    They wrote it in the local rag
    Death comes to the local fag
    I guess you finally stopped believing
    That any hope would ever find you
    Well i know that story,
    I was sitting right behind you

    Hey tony, what's so good about dying
    He said i think i might do a little dying today
    He looked in the mirror and saw
    A little faggot starin back at him
    Pulled out a gun and blew himself away

    Hey tony whats so good about dying, dying
    Hey tony whats so good about dying, dying
    Hey tony, what's so good about dying
    He said i think i might do a little dying today
    He looked in the mirror and saw
    A little faggot starin back at him
    Pulled out a gun and blew himself away
    Pulled out a gun and blew himself away
    Pulled out a gun and blew himself away
    Tony...
