Neil’s in rehab, Neil’s in rehab, oh, hope he gets well soon………
Have you heard about Neil, I hear he’s got a problem.
It’s been going on for years and now it’s finally out.
He’s been drinking and doing drugs, screwing his friends for a couple of bucks.....
It got so bad that I walked away and bailed out………
He’ld only come to see me if he needed a ride or money.
If he saw me with a pretty lady he’ld act like we were best friends.
When he was getting married he forgot where I lived, an invitation never came and that I can’t forgive………
So that’s when our so-called friendship came to an end.
Meanwhile he’s running through a string of jobs and sleazy pickups,
While his wife and baby wait at home………but I hear it’s going to change ‘cause:
Neil’s in rehab, Neil’s in rehab, oh, hope he gets well soon...
You could never win an argument, he had to have the last word;
He would always win ‘cause he could shout louder than YOU……….
All the times that I trusted him, he kept letting me down, still I have to grin………
He’s basically good but I won’t stay friends with a guy that won’t stay true………
All the bills that were left unpaid with no forwarding address, his life’s a mess,
………and there’s no one else to blame, but it hopefully will change because:
Neil’s in rehab, Neil’s in rehab, oh, hope he gets well soon………
He can charm the Hell out of you, that’s the way that we became friends,
....But a bunch of broken promises can only go so far………(get up!)
(break)
Some of you might say: “Aren’t you afraid he’ll hear this?”
My answer is “No....let’s pound the message in!!!!!!”
Then he can remember the times we were close,
How he ruined this, each time risking overdose.
He might have lost the battle but you know that he can still win………
All the cars that he lost, you know he could have lost his life....All the times that he screwed up but there’s still a chance………I just pray that he’ll listen now that:
Neil’s in rehab, Neil’s in rehab, oh, hope he gets well soon...
(Are you listening, Neil?!?!?!?.........)
Neil’s in rehab, Neil’s in rehab, oh, hope he gets well soon………(2x)
