Lost a Friend |
When you read about somebody special |
who has met an untimely end |
although you didn’t even know them personally |
feels like you’ve lost a friend |
And to all the cynics who think Lennon |
only cared about what he could spend |
I say to hell with your money fixations |
feels like we’ve lost a friend |
And when I die as I must do I know it’s an awful thing to talk about |
and I’d give anything for it never to be true |
what a way to make a living digging graves |
still you’d never need to fear being made redundant that way |
And for those of you who think that Presley |
only cared about what he could spend |
remember that without him might have been no Lennon |
feels like we’ve lost a friend |
And when I die as I must do know it’s an awful thing to talk about |
and I’d give anything for it never to be true |
if it’s any consolation money buys |
only material things no way can it extend your life |
When you read about somebody special |
who has met an untimely end |
Although you didn’t even know them personally |
feels like you’ve lost a friend |
