words and music Traditional
Look at the coffin with its golden handles
Isn't it grand, boys, to be bloody well dead?
Let's not have a sniffle,
Let's have a bloody good cry
And always remember, the longer you live,
The sooner you bloody well die
Look at the flowers, all bloody wilted
Isn't it grand, boys, to be bloody well dead?
Let's not have a sniffle,
Let's have a bloody good cry
And always remember, the longer you live,
The sooner you bloody well die
Look at the mourners, such bloody hypocrites
Isn't it grand boys to be bloody well dead?
Let's not have a sniffle,
Let's have a bloody good cry
And always remember, the longer you live,
The sooner you bloody well die
Look at the preacher, bloody sanctimonious
Isn't it grand, boys, to be bloody well dead?
Let's not have a sniffle,
Let's have a bloody good cry
And always remember, the longer you live,
The sooner you bloody well die
