Maybe |
The first guy I know who died |
I can’t remember his name |
The tenth grade started, he just never came again |
All his friends sat around and cried for a day or two |
You can say what you want about immortal soul |
When that guy died it left a hole |
It was my first clue |
That when they’re gone they’re gone |
Maybe Jesus beat that rap |
We’re not sure |
Maybe you can live forever |
If your heart is pure |
Or maybe you’ll come back |
Some day a a king prawn |
Maybe angels come |
And take you away to heaven |
Or the other way |
But from down here it appears |
That when they’re gone |
They’re gone |
Me and Stevie Gibson used to walk home from school |
He used to have this little turn around rule |
If you turn around the one way gotta turn around |
The other way or it’s bad luck |
He went out rafting on the river |
The river went around and the raft went around |
And his luck got all wound up and he drowned |
And he was gone |
Maybe Jesus beat that rap |
We’re not sure |
Maybe you can live forever |
If your heart is pure |
Or maybe you’ll come back |
Some day a a king prawn |
Maybe angels come |
And take you away to heaven |
Or the other way |
But from down here it appears |
That when they’re gone |
They’re gone |
Two weeks after Dieter died you could call him on the phone |
And he would tell you that he’s not home |
And it gave you an eerie feeling even though you knew |
It was just an answering machine |
'Cause somewhere deep inside you know |
That they don’t come back when they go |
And he had gone |
And when they’re gone, they’re gone |
Maybe Jesus beat that rap |
We’re not sure |
Maybe you can live forever |
If your heart is pure |
Or maybe you’ll come back |
Some day a a king prawn |
Maybe angels come |
And take you away to heaven |
Or the other way |
But from down here it appears |
That when they’re gone |
They’re gone |
My mother died in intensive care |
We were sitting around singing on folding chairs |
When I got the feeling somebody wasn’t there |
Well I counted noses but it came out right |
The doctors said she died that night |
But I felt that hole and I knew that she had gone |
Maybe Jesus beat that rap |
We’re not sure |
Maybe you can live forever |
If your heart is pure |
Or maybe you’ll come back |
Some day a a king prawn |
Maybe angels come |
And take you away to heaven |
Or the other way |
But from down here it appears |
That when they’re gone |
They’re gone |
I looked up death in the dictionary one day |
Just to see what the dictionary had to say |
It’s the complete and irreversible cessation of life functions |
Which is not very poetic but it’s precise and clean |
And if you analyze it what that means is |
When they’re gone, they’re gone |
Maybe Jesus beat that rap |
We’re not sure |
Maybe you can live forever |
If your heart is pure |
Or maybe you’ll come back |
Some day a a king prawn |
Maybe angels come |
And take you away to heaven |
Or the other way |
But from down here it appears |
That when they’re gone |
They’re gone |
