ROGER: So Bri, now that you've got your precious guitar back, how about playing us that song you were whining about?

BRIAN: Oh, yes, ok. (sits down) (starts playing it) (starts singing) There's no time for us... There's no place for us... What is this thing that builds our dreams, yet slips away from us? Who wants to live forever? Who wants to live forever? Ooh...

FREDDIE: (reads the lyrics) (continues) There's no chance for us... It's all decided for us... This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us... Who wants to live forever? Who wants to live forever? Ooh...
