Lee Thomas Miller - d**h Of A Single Man lyrics

[Verse 1] Remember when we got the news Confirming our worst fears I said he wouldn't make it six months And others gave him a year [Verse 2] And sure enough last Saturday We paid our last respects He left us here still in this life And he's gone on to the next [Verse 3] I'd never seen him wear a tie But he looked so natural, almost lifelike The preacher spoke, his mother cried When he said “Son, you may now kiss the bride” [Verse 4] Everyone cheered, I thought how odd I didn't understand Why with champagne and cake we celebrate The d**h of a single man [Verse 5] So many flowers, he was so loved Prior to the bride As a matter of fact The maid of honor should be disqualified [Verse 6] To all his friends, it's a wake-up call If it happened to him It can happen to us all Nothing says it's over man Like a bad 80's cover band How can we dance to My Sharona At the d**h of a single man [Verse 7] He was so young So full of dreams Before the day he fell Now he's gone on to a better place Or possibly to hell [Verse 8] Now here we are, seems so unfair It's poker night and there's one empty chair So many things we're gonna miss His happy smile and that great laugh of his [Verse 9] I think of him in the after wife, life I guess all good things must end So with Jack and Coke, we'll make a toast To the d**h of a single man
