rod could not live with or live without you
you were rodney's life and his worst fear
for the day that no one cared about you
rod died a penniless puppeteer
no one knew what you were goin' through
destitute, broke and blue, there's nothing that we could do
to save rod or emu, eeoo, eeoo, eeoo
rod meant nowt unless you came along too
he was up the spout without his bird
then they said that rod was dead
you changed his life and never said a word
there's only rodney only who
had suffered more than you
melancholy rodney, exhausted emu
it all went wrong for rod he, died alone with you
for the day that no one
emu, rod and emu, rod and emu, rod and you
