This is a story, a very special story
It's about Brian Jones, one of the Rolling Stones
Where were you when the stars went out?
Where were you when they started to shout?
I saw you alone by the pool
And all your friends called you a fool
Godstar, Godstar
God... Star
Godstar, Godstar
God... Star
Godstar, Godstar
God... Star
And you were so beautiful
You were so very special
I wish I was with you now
I wish I could save you somehow
Godstar, Godstar
God... Star
Godstar, Godstar
God... Star
Godstar, Godstar
God... Star
Where were all your friends that night
As you switched off the final light?
I saw your body in the water
Like a lamb going to the slaughter
Godstar, Godstar
God... Star
Godstar, Godstar
God... Star
Godstar, Godstar
God... Star
(Echoing chorus): Brian, Brian, Brian
Brian, Brian, Brian...
Godstar, Godstar
God... Star
Godstar, Godstar
God... Star
Godstar, Godstar
God... Star
And where were all of your laughing friends?
Where were they at the very end?
They started to steal your glory
They never even told your story
Godstar, Godstar
God... Star
Godstar, Godstar
God... Star
Godstar, Godstar
God... Star
