I’m a Funky Man

Roll out the carpet ,

Here comes our Prince

The day he died ,we all cried

A Funky Man

Alone, without a plan

You gave us your heart and soul

And you never showed us,

How it took its toll

You knew the end was near,

Never showing one ounce of fear

A genius in all you did

Yet so lonesome even as a kid.

And like passions in the soul

Swelling into torrents as they roll

You swallowed your last pill...

With no idea it would kill

It wasn't much later...

Found in the elevator

You took that last breath..

And it was certain death

I asked the heaven and stars

Please don't take my love...

The answer was silence ...

Silence from the angels above!!
