Pennies from Heaven

Lay me down in open skies Put the pennies on my eyes Wrapped in my suit and tie of gray Say a couple words of grace Toss the earth upon my face And let's call it another day Endless time is all I've got As I decompose and rot It's a horrid situation As I leave you all behind The one thing that comes to mind Should have asked them for cremation
