Lyrics and Chords


Marky got with Sharon, and Sharon got Sherese
She was sharing Sharon's outlook on the topic of disease
Mikey had a facial scar and Bobby was a racist
They were all in love with dyin', they were doin' it in Texas

/ n.c. /

Tommy played piano like a kid out in the rain
Then he lost his leg in Dallas he was dancing with a train
They were all in love with dyin', they were drinkin' from a fountain
That was pouring like an avalanche, coming down the mountain

{Refrain}
I don't mind the sun sometimes, the images it shows
I can taste you on my lips and smell you in my clothes
Cinnamon and sugary and softly spoken lies
You never know just how you look through other people's eyes

/ G - / :

Some will die in hot pursuit and fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit while sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche, coming down the mountain

{Refrain}

Another Mikey took a knife while arguing in traffic
Flipper died a natural death, he caught a nasty virus
Then there was an ever-present football player rapist
They were all in love with dyin', they were doin'/ it in Texas

Pauly caught a bullet, but it only hit his leg
Well it should've been a better shot and got him in the head
They were all in love with dyin', they were drinkin' from a fountain
That was pouring like an avalanche, coming down the mountain

{Refrain}
