So long Sweet Cygnet

So long sweet Cygnet

You never got to get

The chance to kiss

Or to hiss

At passers by

So long sweet Cygnet

You never got to get

The chance to roam

Or to make a home

With a lover

So long sweet Cygnet

You never got to get

Past your teenage years

Or see your parents tears

At your grave.
