Analysis of Anthony



Anthony, what a name to know
Anthony, was it really his time to go?
Anthony, a pretty women said hello
Anthony, was it really his time to go?
Anthony, someone few people know
Anthony, was it really his time to go?
Anthony, the river no longer has a flow
Anthony, was it really his time to go?
Anthony, seeked to find what he didn't know
Anthony, was it really his time to go?
Anthony, the money was slow
Anthony, but did you really have to go?
