Shirley - Lambchop

There was a time when Shirley was young

She was young all of the time

That was when there was reason and rhyme

That was when she would smile

There was a time when shirley was fun

She was fun all of the time

That was when there was reason and rhyme

That was when she would smile

But Shirley was gone

And the thought of her stays on and on and

We lived in a wonderland

A land where the sun and the wonder ran

Where the days were crystalline clear

That was when she was there

We lived in a castle of mirrors that

Reflected perfection when she was near

We would lie, oh side by side

And whisper low and softly sigh

But Shirley was gone

And the thought of her stays on and on and

Oh no you can’t do that

Curiosity killed the cat

And reasons are a terrible lie

I only know that she has died

Shirley was dead

With her mad man’s knot 'round her neck

Now I spend my time with thoughts of life being mine

Now I spend my time with thoughts of life being mine

Tell Shirley I love her

But she’ll never know

Tell Shirley I miss her

And I need her so
