Freddie's Dead

Hey hey, oh hoah

Hey hey, oh hoah

Freddie's dead, thats what I said

Let the man with the plan said he'd send him home

But his hope was a rope that he should have known

It's hard to understand there was love in this man

I'm sure we all could agree that his misery was his woman and things

And now Freddie's dead, that's what I said

Everybody's accused him, ripped him off and abused him

Another junkie plan, pushing dope for the man

A terrible blow but that's how it goes

Freddie's on the corner now

And if you want to be a junkie wow

Remember Freddie's dead

We're all built up with progress but sometimes I must confess

You can deal with rockets and dreams

But reality, what does it mean

Ain't nothin' said

And now Freddie's dead

We're all built up with progress

sometimes I must confess

You can deal with rockets and dreams

But reality, what does it mean

Ain't nothin' said

And now Freddie's dead

Hey hey, oh no

Hey hey, on no no

You don't try, your gonna die

If you don't try, your gonna die
