How did Camus really die that night? Were they right, when he died was it really his time? Or was it suicide? And Holden Caufield is a friend of mine We go drinking from time to time And I find: it gets harder every time Back off But your out on the street again Don't you stop Did you know you couldn't swim? Back off Until your on the street again I'm not gonna play if there ain't no way I'll win Well Hemmingway never seemed to mind the banality of a normal life And I find: it gets harder every time. So he aimed a shotgun into the blue Placed his face between the two and sighed: 'Here's to life!' Back off But your out on the street again Don't you stop Did you know you couldn't swim? Back off Until your on the street again I'm not gonna play if there ain't no way I'll win Hey there Salinger what did you do Just when the world was looking to you To write anything that meant anything You told us you were through And its been years since you passed away But I see no plaque and I see no grave And I can't help believing that you wanted it this way. And Vincent Van Gogh why do you weep? You were on your way to heaven but the road was steep And who was there to break your fall? We're guilty, one and all And I don't know much but I do know this With a golden heart comes a rebel fist But I can't help agreeing with those that would not quit And it makes me sick when I think of it All my heroes could not live with this And I hope you rest in peace because with us you never did And you were much to young And you changed my life But I draw the line at suicide So here's to life!
