My Dead Friend

Yeah, check me out, goes like dis n' dat
Time bomb ticking inside of his head
Went tic-toc, tic-toc, tic-tac, bang
Got up, got into it, got involved
Tell you all about him, what little is left
He shaked the past, he shaked the rage
Cool it bro- your shakin'
Shakin', you're shakin'
He was up, he was high, he was fly as a kite
You see, he was always down by the corner
He learned from criminals on how to be stupid
Iron Insanity he be
He stole his father's drugs and sold the at school
Perversion, conversion, decadence, 'ya see
Low tide going lower and lower
He went tic-toc, tic-toc, tic-tac, bang
CHORUS
What is hell like my dead friend?
'Ya livin' in it
"Where is hell?," I ask my friend
My dead friend
A long time from now, it will be what it will be
Telling you how great it all was, 'ya see
Got himself into Betty Ford
He never got out, he never got out
Time bomb ticking inside of my head
Go tic-toc, tic-toc, tic-tac, bang
Go tic-toc, tic-toc
Go tic-toc, tic-toc, tic-tac, bang
CHORUS
What is hell like my dead friend
What is hell like my dead friend
"Where is hell?," I ask my friend
My dead friend
Was a hero in the making, superstar, super status
Television, money, car, supersonic, super rat
Blood, dust, an empty six, cowboy, coward, fantasy
Was a hero in the making, walking legend-superstar
Yeah- he was a superstar
Look where it got him
CHORUS
