I'm glad you died By the train tracks In Mexico, alone With the lizards and Horned toads When you did, When the mood Was High and The momentum Rolled in your favor, I'm glad you died When you did Before rock n' roll again And again and disco And no Jazz, no bop And waves crashed And undertoe tore at Tired, I'm glad you died When you did With movement, with power And you should hear 'em Talk about you and the boys With ancient lips and Beautiful I'm glad you died When you did Before it all changed And They took away Want and replaced it With electronic death

For Neal Cassady
I'm glad you died By the train tracks In Mexico, alone With the lizards and Horned toads When you did, When the mood Was High and The momentum Rolled in your favor, I'm glad you died When you did Before rock n' roll again And again and disco And no Jazz, no bop And waves crashed And undertoe tore at Tired, I'm glad you died When you did With movement, with power And you should hear 'em Talk about you and the boys With ancient lips and Beautiful I'm glad you died When you did Before it all changed And They took away Want and replaced it With electronic death
