Dying Young |
Holes in his sweater, fluid in his lungs |
The experts say there’s things |
He should’ve done better |
But instead he is just dying young |
And tired of disbelieving, sick of struggling |
The experts busy |
Their gloved hands are relieving |
The symptoms of dying young |
Yeah, he wished he was a lawyer |
Maybe like Perry Mason |
He would sue them 'til they are scrawny |
Instead of lying there dying young |
Sometimes when he’s angry |
He has a sharp tongue |
The experts, they just fill him full of ice cream |
They know that he is dying young |
Yeah, he wishes he was an actor |
Maybe like Rock Hudson |
Instead of just another layman |
Lying there dying young |
Yes, he dreamed about an angel |
And he thought about a gun |
The experts, they file in by the roomful |
Watching him dying young |
Yeah, the experts, they file in by the roomful |
Watching him dying young |
