Oh no, pop is dead, long live pop
It died an ugly death by back-catalogue
And now you know it gets you nowhere
And now you know, you realize
Oh no, pop is dead, it just gave up
We raised the dead but they won't stand up
And radio has salmonella
And now you know you're gonna die
He left this message for us
So what pop is dead, it's no great loss
So many facelifts, his face flew off
The emperor really has no clothes on
And his skin is peeling off
Oh no, pop is dead, long live pop,
One final line of coke to jack him off
Jack him off
He left this message for us
He left this message for us
He's dead, He's dead, Pop is dead
He's dead, He's dead, Pop is dead
He's dead, He's dead, Pop is deadOn a rising tide
Rollercoaster ride
As the trip descends
You chose not to ride again
And so you run,
What you holding on, holding on to
Run
Life is going on, all around you
Run
What you holding on, holding on to
Used to love to dance
Loved to take a chance
But something turned inside
And the dreams they got left behind
And so you run
What you holding on, holding on to
Run
Life is going on, all around you
Run
What you holding on, holding on to
Run
Look what's going on, all around you
Don't want to have to make a change
Wouldn't want to exaggerate the pain
Go running back to the old ways
And so you run
Whatcha holding on, holding on to
Run
Life is going on, all around you
Run
What you holding on, holding onto
Run
Look what's going on, all around you
Run
What you holding on, holding onto
Run
Life is going on all around you
