A bamboo bike shipped from Japan
A bamboo bike for Sam the man
A bamboo bike a dream come true
For Sam he will be fifty soon.
The bike´s unwrapped,
Sam can´t believe his eyes, he is all smiles
He rides along 300 yards and suddenly he falls
We cheer and laugh, and laugh and cheer
Yet he does not get up
We notice there is something wrong
The laughter then stops.
A bamboo bike shipped from Japan
A bamboo bike for Sam the man
A bamboo bike a dream come true
A bamboo bike to meet your doom.
We see him lying on the ground, his lips a darkish blue
We call a Doc, an ambulance, there´s nothing they can do.
Nobody wants to touch the bike, it´s still as good as new
Nobody´s ever ridden it since Sam did meet his doom.
