It's a Sad Thing

Ya know, it's a sad thing
Going to the funeral
Of a friend. Just sad.
Ya know you're gonna
Miss seeing them around.
Now then, see, going to
The funeral of an asshole
Is a laughin', knee slappin',
Ear to ear grinnin' time.
The old hateful varmint
Is justa lyin' there in the box.
Stake for the heart, crucifix,
And garlic on hand just in case.
You wonder what they're
Up to now they're in Satan's
Happy go lucky playground.
Stoke that furnace. No way
Are there any breaks there.
That ice cream and cold beer
Are just for looks. Want some?
Hell no! Get your ass back to
Work! Fun, ain't it?
