2-10-1999 southern comfort
someone had stared deep into your eyes and there they had seen the light
in your heart they saw your smile and knew things would be alright
you came to them with questions and said "i want to know"
why do you have to go away, this stuff is only snow
a smile was faked as they nodded their head, that is what it reads
you are perfection at its finest and have done many great deeds
they lowered their head and turned away as a tear rolled from their eye
this note says "i will see you around" because i dont like good bye
out the door and away i flew tears flowing really deep
you came outside and heard me cry, and said "please dont weep"
for summer comes again real soon and then you, i will keep
I did come back to hug you on this very special day
but do not expect it all that much for soon i must go away
away he flew up in the sky not watching where he turned
he flew smack into a telephone wire and that is how he burned
soon he woke to conscious laying beneath the frozen ground
he seen the fire and the brimstone and demons all around
this scene sort of frightened him, but yet he did not know
since he died stupidly, to hell he had to go
he seemed to walk for days and nights and all eternity
until a demon pointed his way, straight to hell hole city
he walked among the others until the beat was yet to high
"man' he said its too hot here i think im going to die
i want the snow, sleet and rain just like i had before
someone said" my friend your dead and can't have them any more"
they all made fun and laughed at him because he began to cry
it was then he took flight and to heaven he did fly
approaching the gate real happy like he hoped to squeese right through
the new security system heaven installed turned him icy blue
frozen solid there he was just standing and under paid
the angels approached to throw him out but all he did was prayed
he pleaded to them that all he wanted was just to fly southward
after all earth was cold, winter was there and he was just a bird
they smiled and talked then turned to him and said really nice
it was then his eyes re opened beneath the powerline
he got up and dusted himself off then checked his wings for goo
his wings came open and off he went to florida he had flew
he had not realized upon arrival the hurricanes were there too (he drowned)
