Everybodyduck - The Cure lyrics

Who can say just why all this happened They'd been friends almost all of their lives Sharing all that they had no matter the cost, but one chose to be selfish this time You see the other contracted a sickness All the doctors just threw up their hands His life was ticking away but his friend just stood by like a spectator up in the stands What was crazy was he had the answer To remove all his brother's disease But he folded his arms and talked of old times, while his best friend died without peace Well he's sure glad he's got it But he's to busy to share And at least he won't die like they will Well he's keeping the cure In his pocket You see, he'd also been sick earlier To the sickness he'd become a slave But one came to his aid with solutions in hand, he was rescued from the sting of the grave Inthe first month he told all his buddies Of the wonderful cure he had found But it became routine and few shared his joy soon his excitement made less of a sound Well he realised more people dying From the plague for which he had the cure But he was'nt a salesman and they'd think he imposed and they'd probably seen it before
