Billy
Billy was a good friend of mine
We grew up together ever since we were nine
We went to school, he was my best friend
And i thought our friendship would never end
In highschool he played football
And me, i didn't do anything at all
He made touch-downs, while i played pool
And no one could figure out, which one of us was the fool
Then we both went to collage
He studied medicine, while i studied foilage
He got "a's", and i got "d's"
He was going for his p.h.d.
Then i decided to drop out
Things were getting a little to hot
Billy stayed there, became an intern, then a doctor
Then war broke out and he had to go
But not me, i was mentally unfit or so they say, so, so
When he came back, he wasn't quite the same
His nerves were shot, but not me
Last time i saw him, i couldn't take it anymore
He wasn't the billy i knew, it was like talking to a door
Billy was a friend of mine
I grew up with him ever since we were nine
We went together to school
And now i often wonder, which one of us was the fool
Billy
Billy era un buen amigo mío
Crecimos juntos desde que teníamos nueve años
Fuimos a la escuela, él era mi mejor amigo
Y pensé que nuestra amistad nunca terminaría
En la escuela secundaria jugó al fútbol
Y yo, yo no hice nada en absoluto
Él hizo toques, mientras yo jugaba al billar
Y nadie podía averiguar, ¿cuál de nosotros era el tonto?
Entonces ambos fuimos al collage
Estudió medicina, mientras que yo estudié foilage
Él tiene «A», y yo tengo «D
Iba a por su policía
Entonces decidí dejarlo
Las cosas se estaban calentando un poco
Billy se quedó allí, se convirtió en pasante, luego en médico
Luego estalló la guerra y tuvo que irse
Pero yo no, yo estaba mentalmente incapacitado o eso dicen, así que
Cuando volvió, no era el mismo
Le dispararon los nervios, pero yo no
La última vez que lo vi, no podía soportarlo más
No era el billy que conocía, era como hablar con una puerta
Billy era amigo mío
Crecí con él desde que teníamos nueve años
Fuimos juntos a la escuela
Y ahora a menudo me pregunto, ¿cuál de nosotros era el tonto?
