I’ve decided I’m not going to your funeral
I’ve decided I don’t wanna see you even when you’re dead
And I know something might change between now and between then
But tonight I’m clear in my head
That the earth will grow colder where they lay you
and the hearse will kick back a great big black thick cloud of smoke
And the words in the sermon will adore you
In a church full of gulls and snakes and rats just like yourself
Yeah
So I’ve decided I’m not going to your funeral
I’ve decided I don’t wanna see you even when you’re dead
And I know something might change between now and between then
But tonight I’m clear in my head
That the earth will grow colder where they throw you
And the hearse will kick back a great big black thick dust cloud
And the words in the sermon will make us proud
In a church with a hole falling straight to hell installed in the ground
Yeah
So I’ve decided I’m not going to your funeral
I’ve decided I don’t wanna see you even when you’re dead
And I know something might change between now and between then
But tonight I’m clear in my head
Yeah tonight I’m clear in my head
