Old Man

Randy Newman

Everyone has gone away 
Can you hear me? Can you hear me? 
No one cared enough to stay 
Can you hear me? Can you hear me? 
You must remember the old man 
I know that you can if you try 
So just open up your eyes, old man 
Look who's come to say goodbye 

The sun has left the sky, old man 
The birds have flown away 
And no one came to cry, old man 
Goodbye, old man, goodbye 

You want to stay, I know you do 
But it ain't no use to try 
'Cause I'll be here-and I'm just like you 
Goodbye, old man, goodbye 


Won't be no God to comfort you 
You taught me not to believe that lie 
You don't need anybody 
Nobody needs you 
Don't cry, old man, don't cry 
Everybody dies
