George Lyrics

	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
	I've forgotten my first love
	I haven't seen her since when
	There's a bum on the corner
	He thinks that I'm his best friend, we pretend
	He says the rapture is anyday
	That's when God's coming around
	Although perhaps he should stay away
	They'll run him right out of town, like a clown Chorus:
	With 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

	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
	I' ve forgotten my first love
	I haven' t seen her since when
	There' s a bum on the corner
	He thinks that I' m his best friend, we pretend
	He says the rapture is anyday
	That' s when God' s coming around
	Although perhaps he should stay away
	They' ll run him right out of town, like a clown Chorus:
	With 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
