|
Rally up my friends, |
|
Come and stand by my bedside. |
|
If I die tonight |
|
Put my head inside a masons jar. |
|
Put it in the ocean |
|
And send it out to sea, |
|
I'm wading because- |
|
And when I hit some shore, |
|
And when my seal is broke, |
|
I'll split my eyes and lips asking,"Is this a judgement or a joke?" |
|
This is a chance to make it up. |
|
This is a chance to dissect it. |
|
This is a chance to break it up. |
|
These are the words we've selected. |
|
Don't believe my lies |
|
Of an afterlife spent drifting, |
|
After 30 hours |
|
I sank straightto the bottom, |
|
Of the harbor near my home. |
|
There I lay alone. |
|
The spidercrab is finely clad |
|
Beneath my cloak of brain and bone. |
|
These are the notes we've selected. |
|
In the basement of the dress shop, |
|
They play poker on the weekend, |
|
Old men trading laces, |
|
It's an absolute disgrace. |
|
They never gave a tip to the boy whoran the route. |
|
They never gave a shitwhat the paper was about. |
|
When they heard he'd died |
|
They read the news that day, |
|
Just so they could see what hisobituary would say |
|
It said:Rally up my friends and stand by mybedside. |
|
Rally up my friends and stay with metonight. |
