People Who Died (original)

Johnny sniffing glue, he was 12 years old
Fell to the Earth on Easter night
Cathy was 11 when she pulled the plug
On 26 reds and a bottle of wine
Bobby got leukemia, 14 years old
He looked like 65 when he died
He was a friend of mine
Those are people who died, died
They were all my friends, and they died
Brian got busted on a narco rap
He beat the rap by rattin' on some bikers
He said, «Hey, I know it’s dangerous, but it sure beats Riker’s»
But the next day he got offed by the very same bikers
Those are people who died, died
They were all my friends, and they died
Herbie pushed Tony from the Boys' Club roof
Tony thought that his rage was just some goof
But Herbie sure gave Tony some bitchen proof
«Hey,» Herbie said, «Tony, can you fly?»
But Tony couldn’t fly, Tony died
Those are people who died, died
They were all my friends, and they died

(traducción)

Johnny inhalando pegamento, tenía 12 años
Cayó a la tierra en la noche de Pascua
Cathy tenía 11 años cuando desconectó
En 26 tintos y una botella de vino
Bobby tiene leucemia, 14 años
Parecía tener 65 años cuando murió.
el era un amigo mio
Esas son personas que murieron, murieron
Eran todos mis amigos, y murieron
Brian fue arrestado en un narco rap
Venció el rap delatando a algunos ciclistas
Él dijo: "Oye, sé que es peligroso, pero seguro que supera al de Riker".
Pero al día siguiente lo atropellaron los mismos motociclistas
Esas son personas que murieron, murieron
Eran todos mis amigos, y murieron
Herbie empujó a Tony desde el techo del Boys' Club
Tony pensó que su rabia era solo una tontería.
Pero Herbie seguro le dio a Tony una prueba de perra
«Oye», dijo Herbie, «Tony, ¿puedes volar?»
Pero Tony no pudo volar, Tony murió.
Esas son personas que murieron, murieron
Eran todos mis amigos, y murieron
