lyrics

-A Song For Riley -

C’est la fin c'est fini
You finished your book
No paper or pens
You wrote it with friends
From the start to the end

i Love you Riley

The pain that you had
Was no way to live
A take with no give
Like a knife through a sieve

i Love you Riley

So take your big sleep
And we’ll see you soon
In a dream or the moon
In the wind off a dune

i Love you Riley

So gentle and kind
You banged your own drum
You sang as you stumed
You’re the warmth of the sun

i Love you Riley

Mom, sister and dad
And the family we have
Isn’t gone
It’s just different

I’ll still sing our songs
Though they’re not the same
Without you to sing them with me

Songs like:

Do you want to poop on my party
Do you want to be my party pooper
Do you want to poop on my party
(those lesibains have bikes)
Do you want to be my party pooper
(You there)
Take me to your beaver!

C’est la fin c’est fin
You finished your book
No paper or pens
You wrote it with friends
From the start to the end.

I’m your Weinerschnitzle YesButt
And you are my Rye Bread

i Love you Riley

i Love you Riley

i Love you Riley

(Do you want to poop on my party?)
