Lyrics for Jens Lekman’s Farewell Song to Rocky Dennis

Early September and the kids start school Leaves are floating in a swimming pool I wish I had a proper reason to cry A reason not so abstract More like a broken clause in a contract All those things you're supposed to do I could have done them if I had you You could have made me a righteous citizen I could have made all those right decisions But now I don't know who my friend is Can you tell me, Rocky Dennis? Now I don't know who my friend is Can you tell me, Rocky Dennis? Mama told me I was born a lion Mama told me I was born with a belly to lie on Mama told me I was born a liar Mama told me I was born with a heart to rely on But now I don't know who my friend is Can you tell me, Rocky Dennis? Now I don't know who my friend is Can you tell me, Rocky Dennis? Can you tell me, can you tell me tonight? Oh, oh, oh Oh, tonight Can you tell me tonight?
