Pushing Up Daisies

So this is where I'm bound to sleep 

Just three feet wide and six feet deep

No shirt, no shoes, or even sox

Only me in my little box

So grab a shovel, lend a hand

And bury me in desert sand

I know that it's a boring job

Guess I shouldn't have robbed the Mob

Hey Paul, at least you're doing something useful and people will drop by to see you every day. Me, I'm coyote bait.
