SONGS  OF  HIS  LIFE


HE FLEW INTO OUR LIVES,
A ROCKIN ROBIN HIGH IN THE AIR,
TRYING TO HELP, HEAL THE WORLD,
HIS TALENTS, HE DID SHARE.
LIKE, A DANCING MACHINE,
WITH HIS BROTHERS,
AS A YOUNG BOY STARTING OUT,
WHO WOULD HAVE GUESSED,
IN A MILLION YEARS,
WHAT HE'D BE ALL ABOUT.
NEVER,WANTING TO BE,A SMOOTH CRIMINAL,
BECAUSE DANGEROUS, IT WOULD BE,
HE'D BE ALONE, AND WRITE HIS SONGS,
WHILE SITTING HIGH IN A TREE.
I'LL BE THERE WITH YOU,
ALL MY SONGS, WITH YOU I'LL SHARE,
NEVER KNOWING, IF YOUR BLACK OR WHITE,
FOR ME, I WILL NOT CARE.
NOW, YOU SEE, THE ONLY FRIEND I HAD,
AS A BOY, WAS A RAT NAMED BEN,
WHAT SEEMED, LIKE ONLY YESTERDAY,
WAS REALLLY WAY BACK THEN.
I GAVE YOU SONGS, LIKE BILLIE JEAN,
ROCKIN WITH YOU, AND DON'T FORGET,
THAT THRILLER, WAS THE ONE THAT SOARED,
AND WAS MY BEST ONE YET.
WE ARE THE WORLD, NOT THE THINGS OF IT,
"PLEASE." OPEN YOUR EYES AND SEE,
JUST, LOVE ONE ANOTHER, FOR WHO THEY ARE,
AND A BETTER PERSON YOU WILL BE.
