It May Go On Without Me
It May Go On Without Me

Stars could fall, Hell could freeze, it makes no difference to me
I do whatever I damn well please whatever the case may be
As a matter of fact I’m a horse’s **** you very well may say
But it’s in the fine print o’ me contract that I can be this way

Chorus:
Because the world will miss me when I’m gone
The moon and all the stars revolve about me
The world will miss me when I’m gone
It may go on without me but I doubt it

I have a fancy automobile the book says it’s the best
And when I sit behind the wheel the ladies are impressed
I drive around the parking lot with the windows all ajar
The breeze a blowin’ me curly locks just like a movie star

chorus

And I have a fancy attitude to go with my good looks
You see, I’m one of those fancy dudes you read about in books
Historians will note me before they note the Queen
And you may just want to quote me for Chicago Magazine

chorus

I’d like to thank the academy for making me a star
I’d like to thank the little people, you know who you are
My teeth are bright, my eyes are clear I make the birdies sing
And if you come crawling over here I’ll let you kiss my ring

chorus
