If neither of these are correct, do you have any lyric snippets at all? Or other info?
Whatever became of Me I've been thinking Can't think any more Keep on sinking down Right into the floor What a sorry figure I turned out to be Whatever became of me
Hard to realize Time is almost done I never pleased myself I can't please everyone So won't you say hello if you should chance to see Whatever became of me
You call it sink or swim I'm drowning in the flood All I can do is fight This poison in my blood Has anybody seen the man I meant to be Whatever became of me
All that I know is that I don't know anything All I remember is you stole everything All I believe is that nothing is true But I know I never want to be like you
Now the time has come Nothing left to do And no point in anything I give to you So won't you take my hand and watch me as I bleed Whatever became of me

Also found this:
Honoured Lord and King, You know the bloody story, On Monday we only ate little, on Tuesday we didn´t eat at all. On Wedneday we had to starve and on Thursday we really did suffer, And, oh, on Friday we nearly died from lack of food. So use the Saturday to bake bread for us, Otherwise, on Sunday, we´ll come to eat, oh King, YOU!
