Another tragedy happened today-
Oh lord call the newspaper stand.
Said a young boy became a young man-
in the heat of the summer of sixty-nine
lost in a generation, he simply fell through the gap he ran out of time.
I'd say let's blow this pop-stand but the party is just getting started, so rather than run let's hang around and have some fun.
For if today is the day we all die, you may as well smile rather than cry.
We all got to somewhere sometime, sometimes sooner than later
Sometimes later is right now
Right now I must be moving on
and if you knew what I knew, you'd move right along too.
I'd say goodbye to my old town and my family friends,
I'd say goodbye because it doesn't always have to mean the end.
