it's just a game, don't be afraid
you might just make it out alive
oh, why so red? i thought you said
that either way you wanna die
so shut your mouth, and close your eyes
i know you're not a fan of guessing games,
but if you guess what's on my mind,
i might let you escape
oh, you never liked the way i play
i'll take a limb each time
no matter what you say
cheeks are wet and eyes are red,
you're just begging to be dead
(oh)
you'd better watch your step tonight
let's throw a party, you and me,
cyanide and hennessy
promise i won't let you out of sight
it's just a game, don't be afraid
you might just make it out alive
oh, why so red? i thought you said
that either way you wanna die
so shut your mouth, and close your eyes
h-a-n-g-m-a-n,
my favorite kind of fun
get your ass up on the stand,
we've only just begun
h-a-n-g-m-a-n,
why don't you ever smile?
i told you when i brought you in
that i'd make it worth your while
cheeks are wet and eyes are red,
you're just begging to be dead
(oh)
you'd better watch your step tonight
let's throw a party, you and me,
cyanide and hennessy
promise i won't let you out of sight
it's just a game, don't be afraid
you might just make it out alive
oh, why so red? i thought you said
that either way you wanna die
so shut your mouth, and close your eyes
