Death Benefits
There are benefits to being dead
You may not know of these
They try to keep them quiet
To slow the spread of disease
You lose your inhibitions
Paranoia regrets and fears
There is no clock to kick you around
And damn those golden years
No aches or pains to hold you back
Or wise ass kids to heed
You’ve got yourself some time to mellow
And no more mouths to feed
You no longer pay your taxes
The IRS can kiss your butt
The bills pile up and you don’t care
Cause your caskets sealed and shut
