Oh, I don't know.....it's a strange song about having a funeral party.
they say mrs brown passed away
about 2:00 yesterday
the sleepy head missed the bed
tripped on slippers
now she's dead
it was dreadful
i said,"what a terrible tragedy.
to think she was only 103
and this could happen to you and me."
it's unspeakable
it's unspeakable
I don't wanna die when i get old
just take me when i'm pretty and blazing bold
play my favorite cds, take some pictures of me and
hold my hands and
kiss my eyes
and tell yourselves i'm still alive
at my funeral party (x3)
then today i saw a man
with shrunken skin, a grayish tan
turn left into the side of van
down on trite street
he must have had a blindfold on
or deeply worried about his lawn
or how'd he go
but now he's gone
it's undeniable
(repeat prechorus/chorus)
I REALLY DON'T WANT TO BE AROUND
WHEN THEY DIG MY EARTHLY MOUND
TO PUT ME IN THE GROUND
I DON'T WANT TO HEAR THAT AWFUL SOUND
I DON'T WANT TO HEAR THAT AWFUL SOUND
I don't wanna live when i get old
people point and joke and get so cold
(repeat original pre-chorus/chorus)
