about

"Sexy Sadie, what have you done?" This song, which is intended to be a sequel of 'Sexy Sadie' by The Beatles, likes to answer that question. It is a vintage style alternative rock number with an Indian coda inspired by the documentary 'David Wants To Fly'.

lyrics

Sexy Sadie Passed Away - Lyrics

Today I’ve got something to say about someone
who really misbehaved, didn’t he?
Taking money for a word that should never be heard
is everything but right, isn’t it?
No matter what you’re taught, enlightenment can’t be bought.
It’s nothing to be sold, isn’t it?
Sexy Sadie passed away. It’s time to say
that John was right, wasn’t he?

I wouldn’t have laughed all day in a land of plenty, milk and honey.
(No, no! That’s no laughing matter.)
I wouldn’t have laughed all day in the light of all that stolen money.
(No, no! That’s no laughing matter.)
I wouldn’t have laughed all day refusing all the poorer people.
(No, no! That’s no laughing matter.)
I wouldn’t have laughed all day being an arrant liar.
(No, no! That’s no laughing matter.)

Today I had something to say about someone
who really misbehaved, didn’t he?
Taking money for a word that should never be her
is everything but right, isn’t it?
Now here’s a clue for you, any word will do
you’re comfortable with. Believe me!
Sexy Sadie passed away. It’s time to say
that John was right, wasn’t he?
