A Coffin For Two
Today's not one of my better days
Even I have 'em every so often
Believe me mine are rarer than most
Will be chuckling even in my coffin
Sure hope it doesn't freak someone out
And another kicks the bucket as well
A single coffin for the price of two
It sure would be cramped as hell
Don't mind sharing but just imagine
If this sweetie was from the opposite sex
Some hanky panky would likely ensue
Some real rockin' 'n rollin' by heck
Mourners would scatter pretty damn quick
As we try our damnedest to get out
Nobody's staying for the final word
Lowering us they'd play “Twist And Shout!”
What silly nonsense can you imagine
That this could actually take place
Certainly they'd give us a box of our own
Or at least place us face to face!
