lyrics

I called your number but it was disconnected
I called again and again hoping I'd been misdirected
Where are you now my old friend
I searched the internet and found you had died
Just a tiny footnote like no one had cried
A sad little end, my friend

They're dropping like flies
All around us
They're dropping like flies
Death surrounds us
Just stand back and watch them fall

I went to see your mother but she moved away
Went to see your best friend Sal and she had this to say
Just one of those things, my friend

I looked through all your letters
I had them lying around
They were smart and witty
And at times profound
Now their every word stings, my friend

I pulled out a bottle and I got smashed
I cried my holy head off unabashed
It's the end of the world, my friend
