He was a kid from the suburbs, kind of like me
Got pretty far by any standard I can see
He played and sang his guts out every night
So when they call him a wimp it just doesn't seem right
And honey's sometimes bitter when fortune falls on you
But fortune keeping hidden's just as hard to make it through
And whatever problems I have, vicissitudes and such
I've outlived Brent, if not by much
