1
The first guy I know who died
2
I can't remember his name
3
The tenth grade started, he just never came again
4
All his friends sat around and cried for a day or two
5
You can say what you want about immortal soul
6
When that guy died it left a hole
7
It was my first clue
8
That when they're gone they're gone
9
Maybe Jesus beat that rap
10
We're not sure
11
Maybe you can live forever
12
If your heart is pure
13
Or maybe you'll come back
14
Some day a a king prawn
15
Maybe angels come
16
And take you away to heaven
17
Or the other way
18
But from down here it appears
19
That when they're gone
20
They're gone
21
Me and Stevie Gibson used to walk home from school
22
He used to have this little turn around rule
23
If you turn around the one way gotta turn around
24
The other way or it's bad luck
25
He went out rafting on the river
26
The river went around and the raft went around
27
And his luck got all wound up and he drowned
28
And he was gone
29
Maybe Jesus beat that rap
30
We're not sure
31
Maybe you can live forever
32
If your heart is pure
33
Or maybe you'll come back
34
Some day a a king prawn
35
Maybe angels come
36
And take you away to heaven
37
Or the other way
38
But from down here it appears
39
That when they're gone
40
They're gone
41
Two weeks after Dieter died you could call him on the phone
42
And he would tell you that he's not home
43
And it gave you an eerie feeling even though you knew
44
It was just an answering machine
45
'Cause somewhere deep inside you know
46
That they don't come back when they go
47
And he had gone
48
And when they're gone, they're gone
49
Maybe Jesus beat that rap
50
We're not sure
51
Maybe you can live forever
52
If your heart is pure
53
Or maybe you'll come back
54
Some day a a king prawn
55
Maybe angels come
56
And take you away to heaven
57
Or the other way
58
But from down here it appears
59
That when they're gone
60
They're gone
61
My mother died in intensive care
62
We were sitting around singing on folding chairs
63
When I got the feeling somebody wasn't there
64
Well I counted noses but it came out right
65
The doctors said she died that night
66
But I felt that hole and I knew that she had gone
67
Maybe Jesus beat that rap
68
We're not sure
69
Maybe you can live forever
70
If your heart is pure
71
Or maybe you'll come back
72
Some day a a king prawn
73
Maybe angels come
74
And take you away to heaven
75
Or the other way
76
But from down here it appears
77
That when they're gone
78
They're gone
79
I looked up death in the dictionary one day
80
Just to see what the dictionary had to say
81
It's the complete and irreversible cessation of life functions
82
Which is not very poetic but it's precise and clean
83
And if you analyze it what that means is
84
When they're gone, they're gone
85
Maybe Jesus beat that rap
86
We're not sure
87
Maybe you can live forever
88
If your heart is pure
89
Or maybe you'll come back
90
Some day a a king prawn
91
Maybe angels come
92
And take you away to heaven
93
Or the other way
94
But from down here it appears
95
That when they're gone
96
They're gone
