Richard Cory (song) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Richard Cory (song)
"Richard Cory" is a song written by Paul Simon in early 1965, and recorded by Simon and Garfunkel for their second studio album, ''Sounds of Silence''. The song was based on Edwin Arlington Robinson's 1897 poem of the same title. == Plot == The song tells the tale of a Richard Cory from the perspective of one of the men who works in his factory. The factory worker is envious of the advantages and enjoyments available to Cory, believing him (Cory) to be a satisfied man. The last verse of the song ends similarly to the Robinson poem: ''Richard Cory went home last night and put a bullet through his head.'' The chorus repeats again after this verse. This signifies that, despite Cory's unhappiness - explained by his suicide - the worker still "curses his (worker's ) poverty", and would still rather be Richard Cory.
