Lost A Friend

When you read about somebody special who has met an untimely end although you didn't even know them personally feels like you've lost a friend And to all the cynics who think Lennon only cared about what he could spend I say to hell with your money fixations feels like we've lost a friend And when I die as I must do I know it's an awful thing to talk about and I'd give anything for it never to be true what a way to make a living digging graves still you'd never need to fear being made redundant that way And for those of you who think that Presley only cared about what he could spend remember that without him might have been no Lennon feels like we've lost a friend And when I die as I must do know it's an awful thing to talk about and I'd give anything for it never to be true if it's any consolation money buys only material things no way can it extend your life When you read about somebody special who has met an untimely end Although you didn't even know them personally feels like you've lost a friend
