Never got to hear the new Dylan record
Never got to see Trump tossed out on his ass
Never got eat another slice of Lou Malnati’s
Never got to smoke any more killer grass
Never got to go to Paris in the springtime
Never got to drive an Aston Martin
Never got to kiss you straight on the mouth
I was too busy departin’
Never got to witness One Direction reunited
Never got a seat on the gravy train
Never got to have sex with Norah Jones
Never got to buy condo in Jamaica Plain
Never got to kill my asshole of a boss
Never got to play Madison Square Garden
Never got to hold, hold you by the hand
I was too busy departin’
Never got to meet Barack Obama
Never got to shoot up in Amsterdam
Never got to sip a glass of Campari
Never got 10 likes on Instagram
Never got to see my little girl get married
Never got to witness the Red Sea partin’
Never got to eat a banana split
I was too busy departin’
Never lived out my dreams to the max
I stopped before startin'
I was too busy departin’
