Yeah, I heard the other day, man
Jamie said Toby passed away, man
And for a second, I was almost surprised
And when it finally sank in, man
I almost smirked a grin, man
'Cause I knew he was finally satisfied
And I remember him reading them labels
Off the pills, off the Chinese coffee table
But I really don't remember a time when he was alive
And I'm sure God passed through his head, man
As Toby lied there dead, man
After cooking up a twenty
For a breath of fresh air
And his dream slipped so sleek
On his last needle-nose peak
And no more counting days
By counting birds on your sheets
And I said, "Baby, baby, baby
Just don't worry anymore"
I said, "Baby, baby, baby
Just don't worry anymore"
'Cause I know it's a pain in the ass
Cruisin' town for a bit of scratch
And that rent money you stole
Well, hey, man, you can keep that
I remember 13th and Washington, man
A VCR in your right hand
Man, what a picture perfect day
And lasagna at Luke's, man
And a seltzer bundle of juice, man
We always knew the eagle would finally fly away
And we never seemed to have any cash
Even though your two-year-old nephew's credit card got passed
And I remember nudging you every thirty minutes
Just to see if you'd awake
And I'm sorry we couldn't come, man
But funerals, they ain't ever fun, man
And I think we buried you a long time ago
Up in Philly
And all these talks of Joshua's tree
And you saying that you're gonna be free
And the thing I miss most, man
Is your bad company
And I said, "Baby, baby, baby
Just don't worry anymore"
I said, "Baby, baby, baby
Just don't worry anymore"
'Cause I know it's a pain in the ass
Cruisin' town for a bit of scratch
And that rent money you stole
Well, hey, man, you can keep that
Hey, hey
Ooh
Hey
Ooh
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
