Lyrics

Red Hand Case

Blame it on the red hand's weight
Get the heath a little fed up
Oh no!
Thank you for closing my cage
I need a carton cigarettes to stay shut up

Blame it on the red hand's weight
Get the heath a little fed up
Oh no!
See if you would open my cage
I need a carton cigarettes to stay shut up

I guess that's just the red hand's fate
How is it I have stayed shut up? Oh no!
Oh no!
