i crawled out of bed this morning
i brushed my teeth and i combed my hair
looking in the mirror it occurred to me
seldom is life ever really fair
so i walked to the kitchen and poured my coffee
all decked out in my sunday best
i thumbed through the paper and kissed my baby
then i drove uptown to pay my respects

chorus
here's to you & little boy blue
swimming with the fishes in the deep blue sea
long as rock and roll ain't dead
you can rest your weary head
your secret's safe with me

i heard about the junk that somebody sold you
it must of burned like fire when it hit your veins
but you gotta remember when you dance with the devil
one way or another the band gets paid

chorus
here's to you & little boy blue
swimming with the fishes in the deep blue sea
long as rock and roll ain't dead
you can rest your weary head, boy
your secret's safe with me

i know not to cry for an angel
so for your soul i shall not weep
i'll dream of you standin' at the ocean
and pray that maybe you find some peace...ooo yeah

chorus
here's to you & little boy blue
swimming with the fishes in the deep blue sea
no, the king ain't really dead
so you can rest your weary head, boy
your secret's safe with me
ooo yeah, your secret's safe with me
