Rollin'

He's doing alright when his ear is on the ground But when he's on a ride there's no slowing him down Too young to listen, too late for wishing He lost his brakes about the second block Now no matter what it take there's no way to make him stop Keep on forgiving the mistakes that he's living It's fine all the splendid time that he had It's fine all that splendid time that made him mad When he hit the suburbs he was going too fast People screaming at the top of their lungs when he'd pass Too young to listen, too late for wishing When he finally hit the countryside he was laughing out loud at the cliff where he'd die Found a note in a bottle was his body really swallowed by the sea It's fine all the splendid time that he had It's fine but that splendid time that made him mad He was a good man, but stuck in his way Stood strong in his will when he would stay up for days He would never want to give in, so much that we will miss him now All in black, standing around crying over a picture, not a body in the ground Still forgiving mistakes he was living then It's fine all the splendid time that he had It's fine but that splendid time that made him mad
