Lyrics Richard Cory - Simon & Garfunkel
They
say
that
Richard
Cory
owns
one
half
of
this
whole
town
With
political
connections
to
spread
his
wealth
around
Born
into
society,
a
banker's
only
child
He
had
everything
a
man
could
want,
power,
grace
and
style
But
I
work
in
his
factory
And
I
curse
the
life
I'm
living
And
I
curse
my
poverty
And
I
wish
that
I
could
be
Oh,
I
wish
that
I
could
be
Oh,
I
wish
that
I
could
be
Richard
Cory
The
papers
print
his
pictures
almost
everywhere
he
goes
Richard
Cory
at
the
opera,
Richard
Cory
at
a
show
And
the
rumor
of
his
parties
and
the
orgies
on
his
yacht
Oh,
he
surely
must
be
happy
with
everything
he's
got
But
I,
I
work
in
his
factory
And
I
curse
the
life
I'm
living
And
I
curse
my
poverty
And
I
wish
that
I
could
be
Oh,
I
wish
that
I
could
be
Oh,
I
wish
that
I
could
be
Richard
Cory
He
freely
gave
to
charity,
he
had
the
common
touch
And
they
were
grateful
for
his
patronage,
and
they
thanked
him
very
much
So
my
mind
was
filled
with
wonder
when
the
evening
headlines
read
"Richard
Cory
went
home
last
night
and
put
a
bullet
through
his
head"
But
I,
I
work
in
his
factory
And
I
curse
the
life
I'm
living
And
I
curse
my
poverty
And
I
wish
that
I
could
be
Oh,
I
wish
that
I
could
be
Oh,
I
wish
that
I
could
be
