[MARK FARNER]

Life is too short now, to live it half way
I'm cryin' for my cousin, who died yesterday
He never had a chance, no, not to express his views
I swear that he's leaving it, to the rest of you

Oh he ...

CHORUS
Lived his life of freedom, exactly the way that he wanted to
But there's always that one thing, we never do count on
You was born for it to happen to you ...

... oooo-oooo, oooo-oooo
Oooo-oooo
He was on a motorcycle, in a side car
They was just outside of town, they hadn't ridden far
Out to have a good time, on a bike they built
How was they to know it, that night that he'd be killed

Oh he ...
CHORUS

... oooo-oooo, oooo-oooo
Oooo-oooo
Oooo-oooo
Oooo-oooo
Oh he ...
CHORUS
Yes he ...
CHORUS

... oooo-oooo, oooo-oooo
Oooo-oooo
Oooo-oooo
Oooo-oooo
