Everybody Loves You When You're Dead |
They crucify you when you get it wrong |
When things are fine they put you ahead |
They laugh at you with your trousers down |
They pick the stones and aim them at you’re head |
When you’re alive, they won’t care what you said |
What you deserve and all the blood you bled |
Doesn’t matter what you try to hide |
The sun comes out and then the truth is read |
Your fans will love you while you’re alive |
But the wreaths are laid by the rest instead |
When you’re alive they won’t care what you said |
What you deserve and all the blood you bled |
'Cause everybody loves you when you’re dead |
Kneel and pray by the side of your bed |
And then everybody loves you when you’re dead |
Kneel and pray just like your momma said |
