Day The Music Died Lyrics - Singles - Md. 45

Maybe you might have heard 

But no one spoke a word 

The day the planet cried 

The day the music died 

Each day another dream 

Killed by the music scene 

All access was denied 

The day the music died 

We paid for everything 

But back not a single thing 

Our talents were all sucked dry 

The day the music died 

We saw it on TV 

In all the magazines 

We thought the news had lied 

The day the music died 

This is make believe 

This is not for real 

This won't last forever 

This won't last at all 

Eliminate the scene 

It's illegal now to sing 

Outlaws ask the reasons why 

The day the music died 

Now imprisoned for my craft 

I smile and have to laugh 

In my head the music's still alive 

The day the music died 

As all our hopes were dashed 

Seems that all our throats were slashed 

How could all our songs survive 

The day the music died? 

Greedy fat bureaucrats 

Care only for sales and stats 

Woke up with dollar signs in their eyes 

The day the music died
