I am alone again

He said he'd call, but when?

It has been 3 weeks ago

Another one gone, or so

It has happened before

I have 24 more

Joe moved and Fred went too

Bob, Steve, and John are through

I just heard word that Frank has flipped

From some poison he had sipped

Mark, Chuck, and all the group

got put in prison for passing some junkies' soup

Now I have 7, pretty good number

Oh no! Ken died in his slumber

Jim, Gorge, and Mike

Merely got picked up on their cross country hike

Tom and Alen really got high

Claimed they could fly

Right out the window they fell

Straight down into hell

One more left for me

And I just found out

IT WASN'T A HE
