Bob
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well, my friend Bob's in jail today
His girlfriend is too
For stealing change for gasoline
Nothing to do but rue
Destroy the brew
'Cause there will never be another one just like you, no
Bob…
I met him on the boulevard, Hollywood and Vine
He said "you're gonna be a superstar"
I said "that's fine, sublime"
He loved my crime
But there will never be another one just like you, no
Bob
I never see you
I never see you
I never see you
Hanky Late all thru the night
Blackest flag at dawn
A lust for life that kills itself before it gets too strong, that's wrong
Please be lifelong
'Cause there will never be another one just like you, no
Bob…
I never see you
I never see you
I never see you
Killing yourself, that would be an awesome oath
This song is so far away
Remember the home and how they left us alone
Remember our friendship
Stealing everything in the store
You know I want you to stay
Remember the home and how they left us alone
Friends fade away…
Well, my friend Bob's insane today
I know I am too
The mental patients laugh and cry
Nothing to do but rue
Destroy the brew
'Cause there will never be another one just like you, no
Bob…
