Accident On Third Street - Al Stewart[00:00:00]

Linda was killed last[00:00:17]

Saturday about fifteen blocks from where she lives[00:00:18]

In a car crash people gathered around the[00:00:21]

Graveside friends and relatives dressed in black[00:00:23]

Preacher mumblin' how she's bound to go to heaven[00:00:26]

The service started at half past ten[00:00:29]

It was all over by eleven[00:00:31]

They say it's God's to give and God's to take away[00:00:33]

But why He happened to pick Linda on a[00:00:38]

Saturday night no one could say[00:00:40]

Maybe it's just one of those things[00:00:42]

One of those things[00:00:46]

They found guy the who did it[00:00:51]

He had the lobotomy and the chicken eyes[00:00:53]

And he gazed around the courtroom[00:00:55]

With a kind of vague suprise[00:00:57]

Reminded me of one of those[00:01:00]

Vikings with the long handled swords[00:01:01]

The kind of guy even Joan[00:01:03]

Baez would not feel nonn violent towards[00:01:04]

Said he wasn't looking maybe he had had a bit too much[00:01:09]

It was dark it was raining[00:01:12]

He didn't see the light or some such[00:01:14]

It was just one of those things[00:01:16]

One of those things[00:01:21]

I asked my local guru the situation[00:01:42]

And he gave me this reply[00:01:44]

While pointing a bony finger up[00:01:46]

Into the general direction of the sky[00:01:48]

Get on with your own life it is[00:01:51]

Not ours to reason why[00:01:53]

Said he used to worry about[00:01:54]

It once when he was young[00:01:56]

Now he doesn't even bother to try[00:01:57]

He left me with a feeling that what[00:02:00]

He said was basically sound[00:02:01]

Like a black hole in space[00:02:03]

Or philosophyuseless but profound[00:02:05]

Just one of those things[00:02:08]

One of those things[00:02:12]

Tonight I'm gonna take myself down to my local cafe[00:02:16]

Gonna get smashed out of my mind[00:02:20]

Gonna waste myself away[00:02:22]

Gonna drink and drink and sink into that dark abyss[00:02:25]

I wanna be just like that Viking[00:02:29]

I wanna know if ignorance is truly bliss[00:02:31]

Linda's in the cold ground won't see her anymore[00:02:34]

Somewhere out on the highway tonight[00:02:37]

The drunken engines roar[00:02:40]

It's just one of those things[00:02:42]

One of those things[00:02:46]

Oh just one of those things[00:03:05]
