Adonis stumbles out of the
Viper Room
Into the darkened night
He cannot feel his feet
below
Is quickly losing sight
As his brother cradles him
into his arms
And lowers him to the ground
He looks into his dying
eyes
And hears his final sounds
CHORUS:
"I'm gonna die, dude."
How could this happen to
me?
I'm the model of clean living
Dead at twenty-three
They say he would not eat
the flesh
Of any living thing
Or wear the products of
their skins
Because of the guilt it
would bring
Had he been an animal
Caged by scientists
He might have fared much
better
At the hands of activists
CHORUS
A river carries all the poisons
Out into the sea
A river dammed pollutes
itself
Even accidentally
Go on with your lives my
friends
Get over your sorrow
There's a new film at the
cinema
A new idol for tomorrow
CHORUS |
