Jay Foreman - Imagine If I Died lyrics
[Jay Foreman - Imagine If I Died lyrics]
Imagine if I died right here, right now
Before I could get to the ending of this song
My guitar would drop right down
My head would hit the ground
You’d think it’s all a joke
But you’d be wrong
You’d shake my shoulders and
You’d shout my name
Because I won’t have moved
For quite some time
You’d ask around the place
"Does anyone know first aid?"
You’d panic and you’d dial 999
For fifteen gruelling minutes
Around the room you’d pace
Quite haunted by the stare
From my lifeless face
Eventually the ambulance would come
"He’s that one on the floor there
" you would say
They’d sadly shake their heads
Pronounce that I was dead
Then carefully they would take my corpse away
The journey to the mortuary would
Take so very long
You still can’t believe the irony that
I was singing this song
You’d have to call my parents on my phone
You’d scroll down to the
Number stored as "mum"
She won’t have answered yet
But still you start to sweat
‘Cos you’re absolutely dreading
What’s to come
At first the task before you
Is easier than it seems
But after fifteen seconds come
The piercing screams
Well, fortunately this is just a song
I haven’t died so far, that much is true
But just to let you know
I’m softening the blow
‘Cos one day I will die, and so will you
Before I could get to the ending of this song
My guitar would drop right down
My head would hit the ground
You’d think it’s all a joke
But you’d be wrong
You’d shake my shoulders and
You’d shout my name
Because I won’t have moved
For quite some time
You’d ask around the place
"Does anyone know first aid?"
You’d panic and you’d dial 999
For fifteen gruelling minutes
Around the room you’d pace
Quite haunted by the stare
From my lifeless face
Eventually the ambulance would come
"He’s that one on the floor there
" you would say
They’d sadly shake their heads
Pronounce that I was dead
Then carefully they would take my corpse away
The journey to the mortuary would
Take so very long
You still can’t believe the irony that
I was singing this song
You’d have to call my parents on my phone
You’d scroll down to the
Number stored as "mum"
She won’t have answered yet
But still you start to sweat
‘Cos you’re absolutely dreading
What’s to come
At first the task before you
Is easier than it seems
But after fifteen seconds come
The piercing screams
Well, fortunately this is just a song
I haven’t died so far, that much is true
But just to let you know
