Pool Hall Richard

Sweating hard, I didn't get a shot

All I did was stand around and get too hot

Knowing all the people walking on my side

Losing all my money and I'm getting tired

All the women crawl around him like he's Getty's son

Makes you kinda jealous, but it sure is fun

I don't mind, but he wants my lady too

You know the crowd gets bigger as the word goes round

Pool hall king was playing back in town

Minnesota Fats standing up at the back

Trying to hide himself in a plastic mat

You oughta hear the silence when the kid walks in

His reputation's bigger than gasoline

I don't mind, but he's trying to fill my lady too

Pool Hall Richard, you're far too wicked, we know

Pool Hall Richard, kid, you're wicked, we know

You broke my heart, same as you could ever do

With your yellow carnation and your pink satin suit

You make me jealous, but I worship you

One day soon I'm gonna beat you clean

Wipe that smile right off your chin

Everybody gonna drive from miles around

Cueing up to see me take away your crown

Then you'll never, never, ever take my lady then

Pool Hall Richard, you're far too wicked, we know

Yes, we do

Pool Hall Richard, kid, you're wicked, we know

You broke my heart same as you could ever do

Dig this

Bam goes the brown, that's another one down

Know they play much better when the sun go down

Bang goes the green, you're so obscene

Your hands are dirty, but your scent is clean

Bam goes the blue, lock away your cue

The pool hall king is hustling you

Bam goes the 8-ball, didn't see it spin at all

This kid can play, oh, yeah

Bam, goes the brown, ooh, another one down

Know they play much better now the sun go down

Bang, goes the green, you're so obscene

Your hands are dirty, your scent is clean

Damn the pink, one more to sink

Gonna beat you someday 'cause you're making me sick

Down on the black, at the back of the pack

Aw, you nearly missed, you ain't so hot

Pool Hall Richard, kid you're wicked, we know

You broke my heart same as you could ever do

You're breaking my heart

But you're stealing my tart, no, no, no

Shut up
