Freddie's Dead

Hey, hey

Love, love

Yeah, yeah

Ah, ha

Freddie's dead

That's what I said

Let the man wrap a plan

Said he'd seen him home

But his hope was a rope and he should've known

It's hard to understand

There was love in this man

I'm sure all would agree

That his misery was his woman and things

Now Freddie's dead

That's what I said

Everybody's misused him

Ripped him up and abused him

Another junkie plan

Pushin' dope for the man

A terrible blow but that's how it goes

Ah, Freddie's on the corner now

If you wanna be a junkie, wow

Remember, Freddie's dead

We're all built up with progress

But sometimes I must confess

We can deal with rockets and dreams

But reality, what does it mean?

Ain't nothin' said

'Cause Freddie's dead

Hey, hey

Love, love

Hey, hey

Yeah, yeah

Ha, ha

Yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah

Ha, ha

Yeah, yeah

Freddie's dead

All I want is some peace of mind

With a little love, I'm tryin' to find

This could be such a beautiful world

With a wonderful girl, ooh, need a woman child

Don't wanna be like Freddie, now

'Cause Freddie's dead

Hey, hey

Yeah, yeah

If you don't try

You're gonna die

Why can't we brothers protect one another

No one's serious

And it makes me furious

Don't be mislead

Just think of Fred

Everybody's misused him

Ripped him up and abused him

Another junkie plan

Pushin' dope for the man

Oh, Fred is on the corner now

If you wanna be a junkie, wow

Remember, Freddie's dead

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha

Freddie's dead

Hey, hey

Ha, ha

Love, love

Ha, ha

Ooh, hoo

Hey, hey

Love, love

Hey, hey
