Blind Melon Had It Coming
There's a club up ahead and you're rapidly approaching
Big coking, maybe overdosing
Slide on up to the window to peek inside
Everybody there is more important than you
Hendrix, Joplin, and Morrison, too
You know, people who actually mattered by the time that they died
And when you tried to get in the bouncer checked ID
He said "Shannon who? Get away from me"
Hold on, hold on just one more year
You gotta die eventually, gotta die eventually
26 would've been much better
But 28, I guess that will work for me
Club 27 isn't for a one-hit wonder
But the 28 To 30 Club is right around the corner
And they'll probably be more than happy to take you in
You can go down like Ronnie Van Zant (Big Pun!)
And you'll be seated with the guy from that Drowning Pool band
It's not prestigious there, just like Blind Melon
I guess you get to hang with Bradley Nowell
He only missed by three months, that asshole
Hold on, hold on just one more year
You gotta die eventually, gotta die eventually
26 would've been much better
But 28, I guess that will work for me
All I can say is that you were no Kurt Cobain
I'm glad you disappeared as some no-name
And all I can do is sit back and laugh at you
Cuz it took so long to do
Enough cocaine, enough cocaaaaaiiine
Hold on, hold on just one more year
You gotta die eventually, gotta die eventually
26 would've been much better
But 28, I guess that will work for me
