Somebody Else

歌詞

Somebody else I knew just died Went away of all flesh, but I can’t say I cried When I heard the sad news about him I thought, “he’s off the hook, you’re up next, Jim” Somebody else I knew just died Somebody else I knew just passed We might be built for speed, but we’re not made to last And in the end a machine’s obsolete And a life is a thing death will defeat Somebody else I knew just passed He was a guy, just somebody I knew Once he paid me a compliment, right out of the blue I was so relieved it was he who was dead Just a guilty survivor, could’ve been me instead Somebody else I knew is gone Ah, you don’t see it coming, but you know all along Still you can’t quite believe that it’s true How could such a thing really happen to you? Somebody else I knew is gone Somebody else I knew is dead That’s all she wrote, what else is said? He’s not here, but soon we’ll join him Now he’s off the hook, you’re up next, Jim Somebody else I knew is dead Oh, somebody else I knew just passed
