Story Behind The Song
The song and musical pays homage to my brother MIKE who was killed in a car crash while under the influence of alcohol and drugs leaving behind a young girl and boy who will never know their dad. By writing this musical, this was a way to deal with my sense of loss and grief while sharing this important message to a young audience and their parents/parents/teachers.

Lyrics
I DID AS THEY DID AS THEY DID AS THEY DID (1:31)
SO I HUNG AROUND THE OLDER KIDS
AND DID AS THEY DID AS THEY DID - LOT'S OF FUN
THEY DRINK AND THEY SMOKE, HEY 'DEEZE GUYS ARE GOOD FOLKS
I DID AS THEY DID, LOT'S OF FUN
I DID AS THEY DID AS THEY DID AS THEY DID
I DID AS THEY DID AS THEY DID AS THEY DID
I DID AS THEY DID AS THEY DID AS THEY DID
IT WAS LOT'S OF FUN, LOT'S OF FUN
IT WAS COOL IT WAS GREAT
WE HUNG AROUND PLACES & ALWAYS STAYED OUT LATE SO LATE
BUT EARLY EACH MORNING GETTING READY FOR SCHOOL
FEELING REAL LOUSY AND SO UPTIGHT
FEELING REAL LOUSY AND SO UPTIGHT
I WAS CRUEL AND WOULD ARGUE WITH EVERYONE
I WAS CRUE AND WOULD ARGUE WITH EVERYONE
IT WAS LOTS OF FUN, LOTS OF FUN
IT WAS LOTS OF FUN, LOTS OF FUN
IT WAS LOTS A FUN
IT WAS LOTS OF FUN, LOTS OF FUN
