He was always such a nice boy
The quiet one
With good intentions

He was down for his brother
Respectful to his mother
A good boy

But good don't get attention
One kid with a promise
The brightest kid in school

He's not a fool
Reading books about science and smart stuff
It's not enough, no

Cause smart don't make you cool, whoa

He's not invisible anymore

With his Father's 9 and a broken fuse
Since he walked through that classroom door
He's all over primetime news


Mary's got the same size hands
As Marilyn Monroe

She put her fingers in the imprints
At Manns Chinese Theater Show
She coulda been a movie star

Never got the chance to go that far
Her life was stole
Now we'll never know


No no no no oh


They were crying to the camera
Said he never fitted in
He wasn't welcomed

He showed up the parties
We was hanging in
Some guys puttin' him down

Bullying him round round
Now I wish I woulda talked to him
Gave him the time of day

Not turn away
If I woulda been the one to maybe go this far
He might have stayed at home

Playing angry chords on his guitar

He's not invisible anymore

With his baggy pants and his legs in chains
Since he walked through that classroom door
Everybody knows his name


Mary's got the same size hands (Oh)
As Marilyn Monroe

She put her fingers in the imprints (Ooh)
At Manns Chinese Theater Show
She coulda been a movie star (She coulda been a movie star, oh)

Never got the chance to go that far
Her life was stole
Now we'll never know

(Now we'll never know, oh)

Greg was always getting net from 20 feet away (20 feet away)

He had a try out with the Sixers
Couldn't wait for Saturday (Saturday)
Now we're never gonna see him slam

Flying high as Kobe can
His life was stole (Stole)
Oh now we'll never know


Now we'll never never never know
Mmm now we'll never never never never know

Stole (Stole)
Oh whoa yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah


Mary's got the same size hands (Same size hands)
As Marilyn Monroe (Oh)
She put her fingers in the imprints

At Manns Chinese Theater Show (She was gonna be a star)
She coulda been a movie star (Oh no)
Never got the chance to go that far (Never got the chance)
Her life was stole (Stole, stole)
Oh now we'll never know

(Now we'll never never know, no)

Greg was always getting net from 20 feet away (He had game, oh)
He had a try out with the Sixers
Couldn't wait for Saturday

Now we're never gonna see him slam (Never see him)
Flying high as Kobe can
His life was stole (Stole, oh)
Oh now we'll never know
(Now we'll never never know)


Oh no no no
