Remember when we got the newsConfirming our worst fearsI said he wouldn't make it six monthsAnd others gave him a yearAnd sure enough last SaturdayWe paid our last respectsHe left us here still in this lifeAnd he's gone on to the nextI'd never seen him wear a tieBut he looked so natural, almost lifelikeThe preacher spoke, his mother criedWhen he said "Son, you may now kiss the bride"Everyone cheered, I thought how oddI didn't understandWhy with champagne and cake we celebrateThe death of a single manSo many flowers, he was so lovedPrior to the brideAs a matter of factThe maid of honor should be disqualifiedTo all his friends, it's a wake-up callIf it happened to himIt can happen to us allNothing says it's over manLike a bad 80's cover bandHow can we dance to My SharonaAt the death of a single manHe was so youngSo full of dreamsBefore the day he fellNow he's gone on to a better placeOr possibly to hellNow here we are, seems so unfairIt's poker night and there's one empty chairSo many things we're gonna missHis happy smile and that great laugh of hisI think of him in the afterwife, lifeI guess all good things must endSo with Jack and Coke, we'll make a toastTo the death of a single man
