now, outweighing all others in the usual quota
its seems avoidable that rockers meet doom...yeah
and one day their luck just runs out...always youthful guys
shoot, them rockers simply die
rockers never do last
they only get destroyed

and one day they are finally found...lifeless in a room...by a maid with a broom

rockers meet doom....its their fate one assumes
crazier ones are more liable
its not only drugs....they get shot down by thugs
or crash in a plane that's not flyable

survival it seems....is just stuff of dreams
although its long life they may fancy
oh sure, its a thrill....to take all kinds of pills
but everyone knows that its chancy

now death ain't their plan...unless its a man
who's suicide bound cause he's low down
lives may cave in...concerns from their friends
they say dammit boy....you need to slow down

but they're overwrought....and heroin's shot
and then they collapse in the corner....wahhhhhhhhhhhhh

doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-doom...goodbye rocking boys
doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-doom...goodbye rocking boys
doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-dee-doom
dee-dee-dee-dee...la la la la la

well, the doctor comes in...and takes out out his pen
and soon DOA they are labelled
he says, rockers are unsurpassed
rockers, says doc, aren't able to last
they don't get better...they just sit and rot...on some cold stainless table

when rockers meet doom...to their fans it means gloom
their obits the day's biggest title
and when one checks out....there is never a doubt
another's at risk at survival.....wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-doom...goodbye rocking boys
doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-doom...goodbye rocking boys
doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-dee-doom-doom
sorry rockers
