|
I have nothing left to say |
|
But I'm gonna say it anyway |
|
Thirty years upon a stage |
|
And I hear the people say |
|
Why won't he go away? |
|
I pass the houses of the dead |
|
They're calling me to join their group |
|
But I stagger on instead |
|
Dear God, sweet God |
|
Protect me from the truth, hey |
|
I'm dead but I don't know it |
|
He's dead, he's dead |
|
I'm dead but I don't know |
|
He's dead, he's dead |
|
I'm dead but I don't know it |
|
He's dead, he's dead |
|
Please don't tell me so |
|
Let me, let me, let me go |
|
I have a family to support |
|
But surely, that is no excuse |
|
I've nothing further to report |
|
Time you spend with me |
|
Is time you lose |
|
I always thought that I would know |
|
When it was time to quit |
|
That when I lost a step or two or three or four or five |
|
I'd notice it |
|
Now that I've arrived here safely |
|
I find my talent has gone |
|
Why do I go on and on and on and on and on |
|
And on and on and on and on and on |
|
He's dead, he's dead, he's dead |
|
I don't know it |
|
He's dead, he's dead, he's dead |
|
I didn't know |
|
He's dead, he's dead, he's dead |
|
I didn't know it |
|
Who would be so cruel to tell me so? |
|
You're dead! |
|
When will I end this bitter game? |
|
When will I end this cruel charade? |
|
Everything I write all sounds the same |
|
Each record that I'm making |
|
Is like a record that I've made |
|
Just not as good |
|
I'm dead but I don't know it |
|
He's dead, he's dead |
|
I'm dead but I don't know |
|
He's dead, he's dead |
|
I'm dead but I don't know it |
|
He's dead, he's dead |
|
Please don't tell me so |
|
Please don't tell me so |
|
You're dead! |
