Brain Worm of the Day: Ive been wondering what the lyrics meant and I found this on Wikipedia: The song is about a man who, awaiting his execution in the electric chair,[3] begs the prison chaplain to pass a final message on to his wife. Robin Gibb, who wrote the lyrics, said that the mans crime was the murder of his wifes lover, though the lyrics do not explicitly allude to the latter premise (although there is a verse Well I did it to him, now its my turn to die). Robin said: This is about a prisoner on Death Row who only has a few hours to live. He wants the prison chaplain to pass on a final message to his wife. Theres a certain urgency about it. https://youtube/watch?v=CA4CInDnTk8
