lyrics

Thirty seconds prior to Fred Frazier's death
He hadn't begun to tire when he drew in a breath
The final breath that would blow the famous masterful notes
And an unexpected embolism straight to his head

Twenty seconds prior to Fred Frazier's death
He was about to retire but they'd never forget
He put a hush to the crowd Who had been talking aloud
It threw an unexpected embolism straight to his head

Ten seconds prior to Fred Frazier's death
He was just smoking like on fire from his musical depth
His former bandmates had stopped their jaws all totally dropped
It threw an unexpected embolism straight to his head

Thirty seconds prior to Fred Frazier's death
Who would have known he'd expire before ending the set
But now his song had arrived at what he couldn't survive
It threw an unexpected embolism straight to his head

Half a second prior to Fred Frazier's death
He was a half a second higher than his musical best
That solo totally fried and he was ready to die
From an unexpected embolism straight to his head
