It's All Right For Them

When it's my turn To be put in the ground, I'd love to be there To see who's around. Who's shedding tears And actually grieving, Is anyone smirking Glad at my leaving. I hope it pours down As they lower me in, I'd watch them squirming Getting soaked to the skin. I'm not really bitter But it's all right for them For I'll not see sunshine, Ever again.
