Death on two legs

According to the Death on Two Legs Songfacts, Freddie Mercury wrote this about Norman Sheffield, Queen's former manager and a co-owner of Trident Studios. Queen felt that Norman had not provided them with the support they needed, and so Mr. Sheffield and the band parted company. The split occurred under very acrimonious circumstances, and this song acted as something of a final word from the band.

[Instrumental intro] [Verse 1] (Ah) You suck my blood like a leech You break the law and you breach Screw my brain till it hurts You've taken all my money And you want more Misguided old mule With your pigheaded rules With your narrow-minded cronies Who are fools of the first division [Chorus] Death on two legs You're tearing me apart Death on two legs You never had a heart of your own Killjoy, bad guy Big talking small fry You're just an old barrow boy Have you found a new toy to replace me? Can you face me? But now you can kiss my ass goodbye Feel good? Are you satisfied? Do you feel like suicide? (I think you should) Is your conscience all right? Does it plague you at night? Do you feel good? (Feel good) [Guitar Solo] [Verse 2] (Ah) Talk like a big business tycoon You're just a hot air balloon So no one gives you a damn You're just an overgrown schoolboy Let me tan your hide A dog with disease You're the king of the sleaze Put your money where your mouth is, Mr. Know-All Was the fin on your back part of the deal? Shark! [Chorus] Death on two legs Tearing me apart Death on two legs You never had a heart (You never did) Of your own (Right from the start) Insane, should be put inside You're a sewer rat decaying in a cesspool of pride Should be made unemployed Make yourself null and void Make me feel good (I feel good)
