Freddie's dead.
|
That's what I said...
|
Let the man rap a plan; 'said he'd send him home.
|
But his hope was a rope, and he should have known.
|
|
Everybody's misused him; ripped him off and abused him.
|
Another junkie playin'; pushin' dope for the man.
|
A terrible blow, but that's how it go...
|
Freddie's on the corner now... if you wanna be a junkie, wow...
|
Remember, Freddie's dead...
|
|
We're all built up with progress,
|
but sometimes I must confess,
|
we can deal with rockets and dreams,
|
but reality... what does it mean? Ain't nothing said.
|
'cause Freddie's dead.
|
|
Hey, hey...
|
Love, love...
|
Hey, hey...
|
Hee! yeah...
|
Huh huh...
|
Love, love...
|
Freddie's dead
|
|
All I want is some piece of mind
|
with a little love I'm trying to find
|
this could be such a beautiful world
|
with a wonderful girl
|
a woman child
|
don't want to be like Freddie now
|
cause Freddie's dead
|
|
Everybody's misused him; ripped him off and abused him.
|
Another junkie playin'; pushin' dope for the man.
|
Freddie's on the corner now... if you wanna be a junkie, wow...
|
Remember, Freddie's dead...
|
|
hey hey hey ha.
