Maybe you might have heard
|
But no one spoke a word
|
The day the planet cried
|
The day the music died
|
|
Each day another dream
|
Killed by the music scene
|
All access was denied
|
The day the music died
|
|
We paid for everything
|
But back not a single thing
|
Our talents were all sucked dry
|
The day the music died
|
|
We saw it on T.V.
|
In all the magazines
|
We thought the news had lied
|
The day the music died
|
|
This is make believe
|
This is not for real
|
This won't last forever
|
This won't last at all
|
|
Eliminate the scene
|
It's illegal now to sing
|
Outlaws ask the reasons why
|
The day the music died
|
|
Now imprisoned for my craft
|
I smile and have to laugh
|
In my head the music's still alive
|
The day the music died
|
|
As all our hopes were dashed
|
Seems that all our throats were slashed
|
How could all our songs survive
|
The day the music died
|
|
Greedy fat bureaucrats
|
Care only for sales and stats
|
Woke up with dollar signs in their eyes
|
The day the music died
|
