Can you help me? I’ve a problem I’ve been feeling really down Can’t remember the last time that I felt good So I went and bought a gun On my last visit into town And I’d like to blow my brains out if I could Trouble is that I can’t load it There’s this tricky sort of catch On the handle by the trigger locked up tight And I wondered could you tell me How to get it to unlatch? I’d like to finish everything tonight Would it help say if I oiled it? I’ve a special oil for making Things free up with just a tiny little squirt That’s not needed … what a relief My hands are really shaking And I’d hate to get a stain upon my shirt Can I see a little button? Underneath the trigger guard? I just press that and the lever should be free Yes it’s working … thank you so much And it wasn’t all that hard Thanks again for listening to me patiently Do I want to reconsider? What sort of query’s that? You service people sometimes make me sick You think one little answer Gives you licence for a chat Well I’m sorry... I can’t help you... Goodbye... CLICK
