CeeLo Green
Robin Williams (Live)
[Verse 1]
Oh, what a night, oh, what a night
Tears in my eyes, staring up at the sky in disbelief
"I've got a voice in my head, voice in my head"
That’s what it said
All we really need is some comic relief

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm afraid of not being able to laugh anymore, oh
What's life going to become once we don’t have anymore heroes?

[Chorus]
We don't know what the next man's going through
Wish I could say it in a plainer way
I said we don't know but life reminds me of Robin Williams
We've got to laugh the pain away
We don't know what the next man's going through
Wish I could say it in a plainеr way
I said we don't know but life reminds mе of Robin Williams
We’ve got to laugh the pain away
Laugh the pain away, oh oh

[Verse 2]
John Belushi knew you and me better than we knew ourselves
And we all listen to Richard Pryor, yeah
They don’t make Philip Seymour Hoffman often
Now he's one of the things we lost in the fire, Lord, yes
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I’m afraid of not being able to laugh anymore, oh
What's life going to become once we don't have anymore heroes?

[Chorus]
We don't know what the next man’s going through
Wish I could say it in a plainer way
I said we don't know but life reminds me of Robin Williams
We've got to laugh the pain away
We don't know what the next man's going through
Wish I could say it in a plainer way
I said we don't know but life reminds me of David Bowie
We've got to dance the pain away

[Bridge]
Oh, oh, Chris Farley can you hear me?
Oh oh oh, Bernie, can you hear me?
Oh, yes

[Chorus]
Said we don't know what the next man's going through
We don't know, life reminds me of Robin Williams
We don't know what the next man's going through
I said we don't know but life reminds me of Robin Williams
We've got to laugh the pain away
[Outro]
Phil Hartman, can you hear me? Ooh, yes
Robin, can you hear me?
