| Raise your hand if you wish I was dead!
|
| 'cause what folks really mean is mostly left unsaid
|
| Raise your hand, come on
|
| Raise, raise, raise your hand
|
| Raise your hand if you all want me dead
|
| What will be said, what will be said as soon I am dead?
|
| Will no one give a shit, will no one give a shit, or will the whole town go mad?
|
| Will they dance on the tables like it’s the best day they ever had?
|
| Or will they say «he was a nice guy, just got in over his head»
|
| Welcome to my funeral
|
| Good to see you all
|
| Welcome to my funeral
|
| Raise your hand if you wish I was dead!
|
| 'cause what folks really mean is mostly left unsaid
|
| Raise your hand, come on
|
| Raise, raise, raise your hand
|
| Raise your hand if you all want me dead
|
| What will be said, what will be said as soon as I am dead?
|
| Will they chop me into parts, feed me to the pigs and be very very glad?
|
| Will they dance on my gravestone like it’s the best day they ever had
|
| Will they cry but spell my name wrong in my obituary, hey!
|
| What will be said, what will be said as soon as I am dead?
|
| Will they call ABC, will they call CNN or the president out of bed?
|
| Will they piss on my grave and tell the world I was a knucklehead?
|
| Will my ghost be on the radio, singing all my great songs instead?
|
| Bye and thank you all
|
| For the flowers and the calls
|
| For being at my funeral
|
| Bye, bye you all, hope you had some fun, some fun at my funeral
|
| Bye, bye you all, on this rainy day in fall, bye bye you all… |
