Season In The Sun
Goodbye my friend, it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
And all the flowers are everywhere
Pretty girls are everywhere
"Think of me and i'll be there."
Goodbye, papa, please pray for me
I was the black sheep of the family
"I don't know all these words
I have bought three turds
With my BB-gun I would kill birds"
(This part is different in the nirvana version to the original version by Terry Jacks. The Terry Jacks version goes as follows:
"You tried to teach me right from wrong
Too much wine and too much song
I wonder how i got along")
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed
Were just seasons out of time
All our lives, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the stars that we reached were just starfish on the beach.
Goodbye, michelle, my little one
"I was the apple of the shining sun.
And I have loved you every week
All my tears are salty
I think that now I will start to leave"
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed
Were just seasons out of time
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the stars that we reached were just starfish on the beach. (2x)
