Joe
...he was sure that everbody cared

There was this guy named Joe
He used to hold 'em in the palm of his hand
He used to flick 'em off like ashes from his cigarette
Used to light 'em up and let 'em burn
'Til there was nothing left
This guy named Joe

Joe had a friend
Once in a while they used to double-team
Once in a while they'd just impress the hell out of everyone
Play the field for beers and laughs
But never for keeps
Joe and his friend

And Joe knew that everybody loved him
He was sure that everybody cared
Joe cared a lot about Joe

Joe had a wife
She used to love him 'til he burned it out of her
Tried to explain but smiled desparately through cracked lips
He tried to hide her then he walked away
Still he tried to smile
Joe and his wife

Joe was the boss
He always ran his section like a pro
He always knew how to motivate and separate
Always said communication was the key
From him on down
From Joe the boss

And Joe knew that everybody loved him
He was sure that everybody cared
Joe cared a lot about Joe
