George - Jude

George died in the

Fifth grade

No one ever knew why

He was out selling

Lemonade

On the fourth of July

And he died

Sister Claire said that

He was

An angel on earth

She stood there and she

Told us

She had clearly rehearsed

Every verse

Of the lies that

Tie you down

There are times when a

Man feels

That it's him against the world

There are times when a

Man steals

From the love of his girl

There are days when a

Beast dies

Long before the gun

And there are days when a

Crow flies

Straight into the sun

To be done

With the lies that tie

You down

And I've forgotten my

First love

I haven't seen her since when

But there's a bum on the

Corner

He thinks that I'm his best friend

We pretend

He says the rapture is

Any day

That's when God's coming down

Although perhaps he should

Stay away

They'll run him right out of town

Like a clown

With the lies that

Tie you down

The lies that

Tie you down

The lies that

Tie you down

Nineteen ninety

Nineteen ninety

Nineteen ninety

Nine it's almost

Time
