THE BALLAD OF DWIGHT FRYE
Alice Cooper
I was gone for fourteen days,
I could have been gone for more.
Held up in the intensive care ward,
Lying on the floor.
I was gone for all those days, but,
I was not all alone.
I made friends with a lot of people,
in the danger zone
See my lonely life unfold,
I see it every day
See my lonely mind explode,
Since I've gone away
I think I lost some weight there, and ,
I'm sure I need some rest
Sleeping don't come very easy
in a straight white vest
Sure like to see that little children
She's only four years old
I'd give her back all of her playthings
Even the ones I stole
See my lonley life unfold
I see it every day
See my lonely mind explode
When I've gone insane
I wanna get out of here
I wanna get out of here
I've gotta, I've gotta get out of here
You gotta let me outta here
You gotta let me outta here
You gotta let me outta here
You gotta let me outta here
I gotta get outta here
Let me outta here
See my lonely life unfold
I see it every day
See my lonely mind explode
Blow up in my face
(interlude)
I grabbed my hat and I got my coat, and I,
I ran into the street
I saw a man who was choking there
I guess he couldn't breathe
Said to myself this is very strange
I'm glad it wasn't me
But now I hear those sirens calling
And so I am not free
See my lonely life unfold
I see it every day
See my lonely mind explode
When I've gone insane
