Lyrics

By Major Fuckin’ Bonehead, sung to Bill “Nookey” Gilroy by the Edmonton H3 pack on the occasion of his 2nd annual 69th Birthday Party, November 1999

Goodbye Bill Gilroy … though you never knew youth at all. You had your cane to hold yourself … while most of us still crawled. We crawled to your seniors lodge … and we whispered into your brain. We ran you on our hash-trails … and we made you change your name. And it seems to me you lived your life … like a geezer who has sinned. Never knowing who to drool on … when old age set in. Edison would have liked to have known you … but he was just a kid. Your sex drive burned out long before … his light bulb ever did. Alzheimer’s was tough … as tough as never getting laid. EH3 created a superstar … and gout was the price you paid. Even when you died … oh the press still hounded you. All the HashTrash had to say … was that Nookey was found in the Nude! And it seems to me you lived your life … like a geezer who has sinned. Never knowing who to drool on … when old age set in. Edison would have liked to have known you … but he was just a kid. Your sex drive burned out long before … his light bulb ever did. Goodbye Bill Gilroy … though you never knew youth at all. You had your cane to hold yourself … while most of us still crawled. Goodbye Bill Gilroy … from the virgin on their 22nd beer. Who sses you as something more than sexual … More than just a little bit queer! And it seems to me you lived your life … like a geezer who has sinned. Never knowing who to drool on … when old age set in. Edison would have liked to have known you … but he was just a kid. Your sex drive burned out long before … his light bulb ever did. Your sex drive burned out long before … his light bulb ever did.
