Lyrics

[00:00.52] When Michael died
[00:03.62] people all over the world did the moon walk and the thriller
[00:07.18] When Patrick died
[00:10.04] people all over the world tried to do that lift
[00:13.94] When Farrah died
[00:17.44] people all over the world feathered their hair and put on hot pants
[00:21.09] When John Hughes died
[00:23.88] people all over the world said Bueller, Bueller
[00:27.95] Well today we lost another hero
[00:31.10] Today we lost another friend
[00:34.61] Today we lost the world's greatest manager
[00:38.16] Today we lost the captain, yeah
[00:41.36] Today we lost the captain
[00:44.75] I hope a million elbows drop and a million heads get locked
[00:47.92] And a million beards get banded and a million bodies slammed
[00:51.87] A million piles driven and a million lives start living because you never
[00:56.02] ever know when it will be your time to go
[00:58.51] No you never, ever know when it will be your time to go
[01:01.86] He was often imitated but you cannot duplicate the one who thought you how to win,
[01:05.96] the one who taught you how to have fun
[01:08.91] Really, really changed me as a kid back in the 80's
[01:12.33] The first time I saw him he seemed colorful and crazy
[01:15.67] In my baggy jams and my different color sneaks
[01:19.06] they could do what I could do and even if I got teased
[01:23.07] I know I'm not the only kid my age who feels they have to owe you
[01:26.18] You set a generation of freaks free with your persona
[01:29.34] With your rubber banded face and your rubber banded beard
[01:32.49] You gave a lot of kids permission to let out their inner weird
[01:36.34] So here's to you
[01:40.12] Captain Lou yeah, I love you yeah
[01:43.23] Captain Lou, Captain Lou yeah, I love you yeah
[01:47.52] Captain Lou yeah, I love you yeah
[01:50.37] Captain Lou yeah, I love you yeah
[01:53.32] Captain Lou yeah, I love you yeah
[01:57.03] Captain Lou yeah, I love you yeah
[02:00.23] I hope a million elbows drop and a million heads get locked
[02:03.38] And a million beards get banded and a million bodies slammed
[02:06.73] A million piles driven and a million lives start living
[02:07.34] because you never, ever know when it will be your time to go
[02:13.76] I hope a million elbows drop and a million heads get locked
[02:17.28] And a million beards get banded and a million bodies slammed
[02:20.71] A million piles driven and a million lives start living
[02:24.12] because you never, ever know when it will be your time to go
[02:27.57] No you never, ever know when it will be your time to go
[02:27.79] No you never, ever know when it will be your time to go
[02:34.16] No you never, ever know when it will be your time to go
[02:38.27] No you never, ever know when it will be your time to go
[02:41.16] No you never, ever know when it will be your time to go
[02:44.57] No you never, ever know when it will be your time to go
[02:46.24] No you never, ever know when it will be your time to go
[02:48.35] No you never, ever know when it will be your time to go
[02:51.29] No you never, ever know when it will be your time to go
[02:55.94] No you never, ever know when it will be your time to go
[02:59.05] No you never, ever know when it will be your time to go
[03:01.85] No you never, ever know when it will be your time to go
[03:05.13] No you never, ever know when it will be your time to go
