Uncle John by Chris Price

Uncle John
Standing in the window
Listening to the wind blow
Is he gonna jump?

Uncle John
Waiting for the right time
Maybe out of his mind
No one knows what's up

"Stop looking at me,
I'm enjoying a cool breeze
Go about your day
Everything's ok"

What happened, John?
("Nothing!")
What happened, John?
("I said nothing!")

Uncle John
Standing on the ledge now
Turning his head down
Towards the ground

Uncle John
Why do you wanna do it?
Please don't pursue it
We like having you around

"Don't patronize me
I'm enjoying a cool breeze
Go about your day
Everything's ok"

What happened, John?
("Nothing!")
What happened, John?
("I said nothing!")
What happened, John?
What happened, John?

In an unexpected manner
Uncle John hangs up a banner that says
"LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL"
Hangs it high for all to see
Then he gets weak in the knees and FALLS!
...but catches the banner

Uncle John, hang on
