Oh by the way Nigel died yesterday A quiet guy he never had too much to say He'd been seriously ill, he'd been going downhill For a very long time But he had a good time Oh by the way Nigel died yesterday A quiet guy he never had too much to say He didn't keep up his appearance And he never phoned his parents They were very very old And they could be so very rude REFRAIN And they would say to their friends CHORUS Look at him he's guilty as sin Nobody knows what he's on He's pale as a ghost as narrow as a post And he's our prodigal son We'll miss him when he's gone Repeat VERSE 1 Repeat REFRAIN Repeat CHORUS Solo over VERSE Progression Repeat REFRAIN Repeat CHORUS Repeat CHORUS
