THE BALLAD OF DWIGHT FRYE



I was gone for fourteen days

Could have been gone for more

Held up in the intensive care ward

Lyin on the floor

I was gone for all those days

But I was not all alone

I made friends with a lot of people

In the Danger Zone 



See my lonely life unfold

I see it every day

See my only mind explode

When I'm gone away 



I think I lost some weight there

And I really need some rest

Sleeping don't come very easy

In a straight white vest

Shaw'd like to see those little children

She's only four years old

I'd give her back all of her playthings

Even those I stole 



See my lonely life unfold

I see it every day

See my only mind explode

When I've gone insane 



[Extra verse from the Alice Cooper original, sung live sometimes]:

I grabbed my hat and I got my coat 

And I ran into the street

I saw a man that was choking there

I guess he couldn't breathe

Said to myself this is very strange

I'm glad it wasn't me

But now I hear those sirens callin' 

And so I am not free



See my lonely life unfold

I see it every day

See my only mind explode

When I've gone insane
