Michael Jackson Died
Michael Jackson died today
And so did a little bit of me
He clutched his chest, and for on last time
Exclaimed, “hee HEE!”
Michael Jackson died today
He’ll be dead for ever more
His shiny shoes no more will move
Along the tiled floors.
No more “Rockin’ Robin”
No more “ABC’s”
No more white glove, no more white face
No more shaking of babies.
I’ve known you Michael Jackson
Since I was a little boy
I had a folder from your album Bad
It filled my heart with joy.
The first to make many feel Dangergious
The first to make many feel Bad
.the first to show many black and white
The first to make many mad.
You helped us want to heal the world
Make it a better place
You were the first to show us
what fame does to a face.
You were the smoothest criminal.
You were the king of pop.
Until we finally got enough
we know you’d never stop..
You’ll never have to grow up.
They’ve locked the gates of Neverland.
Your dad is done abusing.
No need to make us to understand.
Now it’s done and over,
the riches in the fame
the verdicts and your sickness
the lies and guilty shame.
You know, I never knew you;
don’t think nobody did
But we’ve all been not knowing for so long
since you were just a kid.
We watched the screws get looser.
We watched the body fall apart.
We bought into your image;
watched your sales go through the charts
There was good in the badness;
somewhere in there; yes?
It was so hard to tell in the end;
things were such a mess.
So now I guess you’re haunt us.
History’s screaming ghost
The mourners will morn in the morning
They’ll cry from coast to coast.
Micheal Jackson you have died today.
I hate to make a fuss.
But I lost a little bit of me
and so did a little bit of us
And so did a little bit of me
He clutched his chest, and for on last time
Exclaimed, “hee HEE!”
Michael Jackson died today
He’ll be dead for ever more
His shiny shoes no more will move
Along the tiled floors.
No more “Rockin’ Robin”
No more “ABC’s”
No more white glove, no more white face
No more shaking of babies.

I just read the book and i worried about the movie.
It does the book justice. There are a couple of minor changes but for the most part i think it did a really good job of conveying the f-d up tone of the movie. It makes me want to build a bomb she…
