Tighten the Noose

This i wrote before Saddam's Hanging, hence has nothing to do with it.

Tighten the Noose

As you watch me approach the gallows,
You all cheer and clap,
Knowing that today,
I’ll be gone forever.

Place the noose around my neck,
Oh place the noose around my neck,
Tighten it a bit,
So I can feel it around my neck,
Then pull that wooden lever,
And watch me plummet to my death.
And cheer that I’m finally gone.
