| It’s gonna be a long while
|
| It’s gonna be a long, long while
|
| Gonna be a long while, living
|
| A sad, sad day
|
| When he finally goes away
|
| There’s gonna be a deli tray
|
| And some tears
|
| But it could be years
|
| Everybody’s lining up
|
| To get a piece of grandpa’s stuff
|
| If you think that living’s tough
|
| Dying’s worse
|
| It’s gonna be a long while
|
| It’s gonna be a long, long while
|
| It’s gonna be a long while, living
|
| It only takes a little slip
|
| For him to fall and break his hip
|
| And then it’s just a downhill trip
|
| To his grave
|
| Embalmed and shaved
|
| Sister wants the figurines
|
| Brother wants the fax machine
|
| Mother thinks it’s all obscene
|
| 'Cause she’ll be next
|
| But it’s gonna be a long while
|
| It’s gonna be a long, long while
|
| It’s gonna be a long while, living
|
| Beneath the chatter no one heard
|
| The old man’s final dying words
|
| He lay alone so pale and small
|
| And whispered, «How I hate you all»
|
| His life is not what I would call living
|
| Wait until
|
| The lawyer finally reads the will
|
| Circling above their kill
|
| Everyone will be stunned
|
| He gave it all to charity
|
| Dangled like a carrot, he
|
| Decided not to share it, we
|
| Should have known
|
| Grandpa’s gonna be a long while
|
| Gonna be a long, long while
|
| Gonna be a long while, living
|
| Grandpa’s gonna be long while
|
| Gonna be a long, long while
|
| It’s gonna be a long while, living
|
| Long while,
|
| Gonna be a long, long while, living
|
| Long while,
|
| Oh he’s gonna be a long, long while,
|
| Gonna be a long while, living. |
