[Intro: Aaron Solowoniuk]
One, two, three, four, five
[Verse 1: Ben Kowalewicz]
I wish I had some thread so I could just sew up your nose
Eternal sleep at least you folded up your clothes
And then you went and you snorted your way off the earth
[Chorus: Ben Kowalewicz]
Ha, but why must you always obey when
Ha, there's so much to say and do
And now you're gone, I know it's true
But now the day you died has become just another day
[Post-Chorus: Ben Kowalewicz]
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-dee-ah-dee-ah
Ha, but I guess, I guess we'll never know
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-dee-ah-dee-ah
Ha, but I guess, I guess we'll never know
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-dee-ah-dee-ah
Ha, but I guess, I guess we'll never know
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-dee-ah-dee-ah
Ha, but I guess, I guess we'll never know
[Verse 2: Ben Kowalewicz]
I wish I had cement so I could just concrete your toes
And then you wouldn't be able to go to shows
Then I'd keep you, and I'd have you all to myself
[Chorus: Ben Kowalewicz]
Ha, but why must you carry the weight when
Ha, there's so much to say and do?
And now you're gone, I know it's true
But now the day you died has become just another day
[Post-Chorus: Ben Kowalewicz]
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-dee-ah-dee-ah
Ha, but I guess, I guess we'll never know
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-dee-ah-dee-ah
Ha, but I guess, I guess we'll never know
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-dee-ah-dee-ah
Ha, but I guess, I guess we'll never know
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-dee-ah-dee-ah
Ha, but I guess, I guess we'll never know
[Bridge: Ben Kowalewicz]
Boom!
But you've been stolen away
But you've been stolen away
But you've been stolen away
But you've been stolen away
[Outro: Ben Kowalewicz (with Ian D'Sa)]
But I really don't want you to
And all those words you said were true
Oh, but I guess we'll never
We'll never know, we'll never know
We'll never know, we'll never know
We'll never know, we'll never know
We'll never know, we'll never know
Know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know
Know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know!
Know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know
Know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know!
