Paroles de Poor Bastard

I awoke inside a coffin Being lowered into the ground On a clear winter morning There were mourners gathered 'round I could see them though the lid was closed I couldn't tell you how A couple unexpected lovers In a less-than-hoped-for turnout As a stranger read my eulogy aloud He suffered long, he's finally gone If one thing must be said But he left the sentence hanging I was done with being dead I leapt up from the casket Looking like Dracula's Revenge It came off pretty gauche I guess But what's a joke between your friends? I said I'm feeling so much better now I want to thank you all for coming out Though premature, it truly means the world Then I started laughing, they started leaving And in that moment I believed in Karma, and in my mouth the mantra formed It will come back eventually It will come back, come back, eventually You will be reborn
