Song information
Artist: Randy Newman Album: Bad Love
Lyrics
I have nothing left to say But I'm going to say it anyway Thirty years upon a stage And now I hear the people say Why won't he go away?
I pass the houses of the dead They're calling me to join their group But I stagger on instead Dear god, sweet god Protect me from the truth
Chorus
I'm dead but I don't know it (He's dead he's dead) I'm dead but I don't know (He's dead he's dead) I'm dead but I don't know it (He's dead he's dead) Please don't tell me so Let me, let me go
I have a family to support But surely, that is no excuse I've nothing further to report Time you spend with me Is time you lose
Bridge
I always thought that I would know When it was time to quit That when I lost a step or two or three or four or five I'd notice it Now that I've arrived here safely I find my talent is gone Why do I go on and on and on and on and on And on and on and on and on and on
(He's dead he's dead he's dead) I don't know it (He's dead he's dead he's dead) I didn't know (He's dead he's dead he's dead) I didn't know it (He's dead he's dead he's dead) How would be so cruel to tell me so? (You're dead!)
When will I end this bitter game? When will I end this cruel charade? Everything I write all sounds the same Each record that I'm making Sounds like a record that I made Just not as good!
I'm dead but I don't know it (He's dead he's dead) I'm dead but I didn't know (He's dead he's dead) I'm dead but I don't know it (He's dead he's dead) Please don't tell me so Please don't tell me so (Your"re dead!!!)
