Seasons in the Sun Lyrics

Goodbye my friend its hard to die
when all the birds are singing in the sky
And all the birds are everywhere
Pretty girls are everywhere
Think of me and ill be there

Goodbye, Papa, please pray for me.
I was the black sheep of the family.
I tried to write when i was left (unintelligible)
I had bought three turds (alt: I had bought thee turds, I had
bought free turds)
With my geeky gun i would kill birds

We had joy. We had fun.
We had seasons in the sun,
but the hills that we climb
were just seasons out of time.

All our lives, we had fun.
We had seasons in the sun,
but the stars that we reached
were just starfish on the beach

Goodbye Michelle my little one
you gave me love and helped me find the sun
and every time that I was down
All my tears are salty
I think now i was fought to beat

We had joy. We had fun.
We had seasons in the sun,
but the hills that we climb
were just seasons out of time.

We had joy. We had fun.
We had seasons in the sun,
but the stars that we reached
were just starfish on the beach

We had joy. We had fun.
We had seasons in the sun,
but the hills that we climb
were just seasons out of time.

We had joy. We had fun.
We had seasons in the sun,
but the stars that we reached
were just starfish on the beach

Goodbye, Papa, please pray for me I was the black sheep of the family (unintelligible line) I have (unintelligible line) If I could be god I would kill (???)

We had joy, we had fun, We had seasons in the sun But the hills that we climbed Were just seasons out of time.

All are lives we had fun, We had seasons in the sun But the stars that we reached where just starfish on the beach.

Goodbye, Michelle, my little one I was the apple of the shining sun (unintelligible line) All my tears are salty I think now I will start to leave.

We had joy, we had fun, We had seasons in the sun But the hills that we climbed Were just seasons out of time.

We had joy, we had fun, We had seasons in the sun But the stars that we reached Where just starfish on the beach.

We had joy, we had fun, We had seasons in the sun But the hills that we climbed Were just seasons out of time.

We had joy, we had fun, We had seasons in the sun But the stars that we reached Where just starfish on the beach.

For this song that's Dave playing guitar and Kurt for the drums... The last on the DVD that's such a great tribute to the best rock band ever.

is actually

Goodbye, Papa, please play for me (I know that's not it in the terry jacks version, but thats what Kurt says) I was the black sheep of the family At night I know that all is right (?) I have boggy turds With my BB gun I will kill birds

Goodbye, Michelle, my little one I was the apple of the shining sun (unintelligible line) All my tears are salty I think now I will start to leave.

i interpreted it as:

Goodbye Michelle my little one I was the apple of the shining sun. And la la la la hill we reach. All my tears are salty. I think now I will start to weep.

Also, Kurt is singing/drumming, Dave is playing bass, and Krist is playing guitar.
