Maybe I sometimes lied
But my crimes are small
One of these days I would’ve
Played it straight
Why the curtain call
I slipped up that’s all

Give me one more shot
And I’ll get right through to you
Give me one last chance
Let me say what I wanted to

I died fast
A headphone blast
And the earth let go
The grim reaper rushed down
To get in touch
Said ‘where will we go?’
As if he did not know

Give me one more shot
And I’ll get right through to you
Give me one last chance
Let me say what I wanted to

Now is not a good time
I’ve had a lot on my mind
Can’t we call this a warning

Here lies an old friend you’re a star
Coming to get me now, I hope we go far
Dressed up for the race it’s a joke
Flying to paradise I think I smell smoke

Give me one more shot
And I’ll get right through to you
Give me one last chance
Let me say what I wanted to

So this is the bottom line
I could have done with more time
Can’t we talk this one over

Here lies an old friend you’re a star
Coming to get me now I hope we go far
Dressed up for the race it’s a joke
Flying to paradise I think I smell smoke
Here lies an old friend you’re a star
Coming to get me now, I hope you go
I hope you go…
I hope you go…
