A Song For a Friend


Here's the song (click "play lo/hi-fi").


Lyrics:

Ewing Sarcoma

By James Y. Shih


Ewing's not a friend of mine

He sits on your lower spine

He came out for the summertime

To take some of your time


I called you the other day

"Tell Ewing to go away"

Like a bad guest, he overstays

And sits on your bed


Ewing Sarcoma

He's been making you feel ill, we'll kill him together

Ewing Sarcoma

He'll be leaving soon and soon you'll get better


I heard on another day,

You're going through chemotherapy (chemo)

Sounds kinda bomb

Like Michael Rosenbaum


You are two in a million

You've got talent, you've got feeling (you’ve got feeling)

Across the sea I wrote this song to give you some healing (not sexual)


Ewing Sarcoma

He's been making you feel ill, we'll kill him together

Ewing Sarcoma

He'll be leaving soon and soon you'll get better.


______

/Bridge\


Ewing Sarcoma

He's been making you feel ill, we'll kill him together

Ewing Sarcoma

He'll be leaving soon and soon you'll get better.

Lyrics-
It's a sunny Californian day
And I wanted to say that I miss you girl
Cuz it seems so cold
When I'm not with you
And if I could hold you,
That would make it better
I know that these times are rough
But I gotta get with you my love
Keep it simple

Simply

Simply you and me

Its almost the end of the day
And Ill reiterate that I miss you girl
Cuz when the sun sets
Thats when Im the loneliest
This bed was specially made
For you to be right next to me
As I lay down my head
I remember what a wise man said:
Keep it simple

Simply

Simply you and me

The Radio Dept. - Strange Things Will Happen



Today was a pretty day
No disappointments
No expectations on your whereabouts
And oh, did I let you go?
Did it finally show that strange things will happen if you let them?

Today I didn't even try to hide
I'll stay here and never push things to the side
You can't reach me cause I'm way beyond you today

Today was a pretty day
Autumn comes with
These slight surprises where your life might twist and turn
Hope to unlearn
Strange things will happen
If you let them come around and stick around

Today I didn't even try to hide
I'll stay here and never push things to the side

Today I didn't even look to find
Something to put me in that peace of mind
You can't touch me cause I'm way beyond you today
