Story behind the song
An uncle of ours died a couple years ago and this is the exact thing that happened at his funeral. Everyone got into a massive fight and that is what this song is based on. -David Heline Jr.-
Lyrics
Lead Vocals: Steven Heline There was a death in the family, Everyone was notified, They took grandmom to the morgue, And her body was mummified, The doctor's had told everyone, It was an overdose, She took a whole pile of cocaine, And sniffed it up her nose, The funeral had finally came, It was serious, no joke, When my old uncle viewed grandmom, He fell down from a stroke, There was a death in the family, Death in the family, Nobody could escape the death in the family, So someone yelled a cry for help, And they yelled a little more, Then four people got up and said, That's not my family on the floor, So as the outcasts rose to leave, The father pulled some cash, He threw it at my uncle and said, You need this more white trash, They started out to the door, And were met with lots of sneers, Then my other uncle grabbed his crotch, And said I got your white trash right here, There was a death in the family, Death in the family, Nobody could escape the death in the family, Then a medic ran into the room, And began the CPR, She brought my uncle back to life, And he yelled WHO STOLE MY CAR, We calmed him down and tickled him, Back to his seat, My mother looked down at me, And said this was a treat, Just as everyone calmed down, Everything got cool, Then my grandmom leapt out of the casket, And screamed it's April Fool's, There was a death in the family, At least that's what we thought, There was a death in the family, At least that's what we thought, There was a death in the family, At least that's what we thought, Nobody could escape this death in the family, I said nobody could escape this death in the family...
