- Track Name: Chris Cogott - Drag Me Down
-
I want to be able to breathe underwater
From the moment I saw you swimming there
I couldn't help but stop and stare
Into your eyes, how they hypnotize
I take one step closer, you beckon me
Your arms are open, begging me
But don't drag me down
'cause I don't want to drown
Just give me some time to learn
To breathe in your world
Don't drag me down
Is this love or some crazy parlor trick
Are you human or just a fish
Filleted or steak, a tasty dish
Or are you an angel sent from the deep blue sea
You say I'm running out of time
I need to choose to live or die
But don't drag me down
'cause I don't want to drown
Just give me some time to learn
To breathe in your world
But don't drag me down
You promise me we'd stay as one forever
Time was running short
I fell into the sea
And you dragged me down
I drowned, died in your arms
You filled me with life again
Now I can breathe in your world
You dragged me down
(I left my life above the ground)
You dragged me down
(To your castle in the sand)
You dragged me down - Track Name: Charlie McCarron - Grandma And Grandpa
-
Fireflies flicker through the grass, been growing so long
And the moon casts blue shadows on the screen porch, but nobody's home
Scrawled in red pen and tucked into the doorframe a note
Says Grandma and Grandpa
Went down to the lake for adventure
No need to wait
Cause we've gone looking for fun and we won't be back
A silvery canoe slips through water so silent and smooth
Like a knife through warm butter, Grandpa's paddle steers them through
Grandma leans back in his lap, and takes in the stars
There goes Orion, protecting the night
Seven Sisters, eternally bright
And far off in the distance I see
The one star that's been waiting for me tonight
Arm in arm we wait for the sun to rise
Grandpa looks back towards the shore, but it's already gone
He says, "Darling I've paddled too far, there's nothing but fog"
She takes him by the hand and looks into his eyes
And says, "Trust in the moonlight, it's led us this far"
Not knowing is only the start
We're going where just you and me
Release our memories and dreams to run free
We're ready, we're leaving this world behind - Track Name: Edric Haleen - I Hope You Die
-
Why am I still with you
When you steal and cheat and lie?
You make me feel I’m worthless
Ev’ry time you happen by.
I wish I could break up with you,
But I can’t say goodbye.
There’s just a single thought
That helps me to get by . . .
I’d be so happy if I
Woke tomorrow morning and dis-
Covered that your doctor made your
Sleeping pills too strong.
I love imagining you
Jumping off a bridge and then dis-
Covering that someone made your
Bungee cord too long.
Or just the thought that maybe
One day, when you’re walking home, you
Might get killed in traffic makes my
Spirit start to fly!
I hope you die.
I hope you die.
I’d be ecstatic if you
Died from eating something that was
Poisoned and delivered by a
Crazy, jealous ex.
Or, while we’re at it, since you’re
Cheating on me anyway, I
Wouldn’t even mind it if you
Died while having sex!
Or something simple like an
Aneurysm burst or you got
Crushed by something big and heavy
Falling from the sky!
I hope you die.
I hope you die.
I hope you die a slow and
Agonizing death like all the
Hours that I waited after
You would say, “Hey, Honey? Let’s get
Dressed up and go out!” And I’d say,
“Sure, that sounds like fun!” And I’d put
On a suit and tie and then I’d
Sit there like an idiot and
Wait while you decided on a
Dress and then you had to change your
Bra and then you tried to find a
Belt and then you didn’t like your
Shoes and then you have to do your
Hair and do your face and do your
Nails and pick a necklace and some
Earrings and then spray on some per-
Fume and then you have to find a
Jacket and you have to find your
Cell phone and you have to find your
Car keys and you have to find your
Purse and then you say you’re “good to
Go,” so I get up and then you
Look me up and down and you say,
“Honey-bear, I love you but you
Know I hate that tie . . .”
I HOPE YOU DIE!!!
How ‘bout an accident like
Choking on the dinner that you’re
Trying to inhale?
Or getting trampled by a
Crowd of crazy shoppers on the
Day after Thanksgiving at some
Early-risers’ sale?
Or if your parachute gets
Tangled in some power lines and
Leaves you hanging, helpless, as you
Slowly start to fry?
I hope you die!
I hope you die!
I hope you die!
I hope you die!!
Maybe you’ll meet up with a
Homicidal maniac who
Kills you and then dumps you where your
Body can’t be found!
It doesn’t matter, just so
Long as when it happens, I can
Prove I’m somewhere else with lots of
Witnesses around!
I know you’d think with all the
Shit that I’ve put up with I’d be
Strong enough to leave you, but ‘til
I can be that guy
I hope you die!
I hope you die!!
I hope you . . .
< Sound effect -- someone arriving >
Oh. Hi, Sweetie! How was your day?
Did you want something to eat?
I could fix us something . . .
< Sound effect -- door closing >
(God, I hope you die . . .) - Track Name: Ross Durand - No Taxes
-
Last breath, last light,
Last day, last night
Last heartbeat, last smell
I guess today isn't goin' so well
And as I close my eyes on my last setting sun
I used to be certain of two things, now I'm only certain of one
Cause there won't be no taxes where I'm going to
No one knockin on my door to tell me Jehovah's view
No one spamming my inbox 'bout my erection
But the best thing of all is that I'll see you again
Don't get me wrong I didn't mean to die
That's just the way things go in the sweet by and by
Life was good, especially while you were there
But, you know, I did okay, about as best as I could bear
But when push comes to shove, if I'm gonna be dead
I'm gonna always look on the bright side, just like Brian said
And there won't be no taxes where I'm going to
No one knockin on my door to tell me Jehovah's view
No one spamming my inbox 'bout my erection
But the best thing of all is that I'll see you again
Oh holy crap! What if I made mistakes
What if you and I don't end up at the same place
What if St. Peter doesn't let me in
Then I'll just have to hope that you shared my sin
Cause either way
There won't be no taxes where I'm going to
No one knockin on my door to tell me Jehovah's view
No one spamming my inbox 'bout my erection
But the best thing of all is that I'll see you again - Track Name: Godz Poodlz - Wake At The Sunnyside

-
dear diary
i wonder why i write
day 512
i chronicle my life
i hear their moans
in the distance and in my dreams
were the last on earth
just the ghouls and me
dear diary
ive lived in hell so long
something stayed my hand
but now that somethings gone
dear diary
dont you shed a tear
the only way outs through
and ive finally killed my fear
said id fight
i did it right
till there was no hope left to have
hand in hand
we'll be again
because my love
todays the day i die
dear diary
i swear im overjoyed
i lock and load
im committed to my choice
as they break through
my barricaded door
i smile and think of you
im not in pain any more
chorus - Track Name: Pat And Gweebol - Baby Go To Sleep
-
Hey baby go to sleep, Everything you know is a paper doll dream
Don’t believe
Darkness on the wind, Girl it doesn’t matter how good you’ve been
How we sinned.
Everything is waiting for you, Baby...Let the end begin...
Hey Hey Romeo, There’s a song I hear, ringing in my soul,
Whoa my Romeo, well they tried so hard to keep us apart, but this is bigger
Than they ever could know!
Baby don’t you breathe, every breath you take... it’s killing me,
soft and sweet
Feels like so long waiting for you, Baby...Come follow me...
Hey Hey Romeo, There’s a song I hear, ringing in my soul,
Oh my Romeo, well they tried so hard to keep us apart, but this is bigger
Than they ever could know!
Hey Hey Romeo, There’s a song I hear, ringing in my soul,
My Sweet Romeo, though they tried so hard to keep us apart, I found your dagger,
Baby I’m coming home! - Track Name: Jon Eric - Birthday
-
At my birthday I was working on my seventh G&T
Drinking them as fast as they would pour
I noticed someone in the corner looking right at me
Who didn't cast a shadow on the floor
Though he didn't wear a watch, I knew exactly what he meant
When he tapped his first two fingers to his wrist
I knew before too long I would be leaving the event
So I lifted up the tumbler in my fist...
(shouting)
Here's to a life surrounded by my friends
Let it end the way that all great things must end
Here's to a body that gave all that it could give
Here's to a life well-lived.
He shook my hand, grabbed my wrist and pulled me through the wall
Felt dizzy as we rose up towards the stars
And then I saw an image shimmer like a crystal ball
My body was still seated at the bar
I felt my heartbeat quicken even though I had no pulse
And watched my living self begin to sway
There wasn't a sensation as I started to convulse
And flung my glass up high as though to say:
(chorus)
I watched the paramedics put my body in a bag
And marveled that I'd felt no fear
How sudden I was overtaken by the need to brag
But when I looked up, my guide had disappeared.
(chorus) - Track Name: Jutze - I Love The Dead
-
I love the dead - strictly vocationally
I love the dead - I bury them professionally
So far none of them came back to complain
I'm just a happy undertaker - I aim to please
I'm making sure you'll get the perfect grave to rest in peace
Sometimes I feel a little bit misunderstood
Because death is my business - and business is good
I love the dead - strictly vocationally
I love the dead - I bury them professionally
This funeral home is the place I call home
And with the graveyard next door I never feel alone
I love the dead - strictly vocationally
I love the dead - I bury them professionally
So far none of them came back to complain
I don't mean to offend - I just really like my job
I take care of the bodies before they start to rot
I can give you silence - I can give you thunder
Either way you'll end up six feet under
I love the dead - strictly vocationally
I love the dead - I bury them professionally
I love the dead - strictly vocationally
I love the dead - I bury them professionally
This is the grave digger's delight - Track Name: Matt And Donna - Lady On The Gray
-
I'm stealing glances at the underside of seams
and though it's threadbare there's something natural to me
and pulling further only straightens up the view
of all the disparate dimensions of a thing I can't subdue
This separation is something endless to explore
my solid stature still lying crumpled on the floor
and I could stay here simply filter through the walls
but I am funneled by an element that softly pulls and calls
The Lady on the Gray
is feeding me on something that nobody else can taste
I'm powerless to stay
as she's slipping through the floorboards and my judgment starts to sway
I'm moving slowly and every fracture feels a mile
observing angles I'm in a hurry to compile
for while I flicker gently warming as I will
I'm peeking over pavement with my senses standing still
The Lady on the Gray
is feeding me on something that nobody else can taste
I'm powerless to stay
as she's slipping through the floorboards and my judgment starts to sway
The culmination of something denser than I know
and an equation that finally balances to null
and I'm dissolving over everything I see
but all the consequence is meaningless to everyone but me
The Lady on the Gray
is feeding me on something that nobody else can taste
I'm powerless to stay
as I'm slipping through the floorboards and I finally see her face - Track Name: Dr. Lindyke - Wake Me When It's Over
-
Babe, you know I’m leaving
I’m going home
I can hear my name called in the light
I don’t want you grieving
There’s no need for tears
Everything will turn out right
Celebrate the moments of our lives
Celebrate the memories that you keep
The answers to your questions
Surely lie above
Now it’s time for me to sleep
Wake me when it’s over
Have a party while I’m growin’ colder
And maybe cry into your beer
Because you think that I’m not there
But...
I’ve got a first-class ticket into Paradise
And if you love me you will see me, just close your eyes
And we will spend eternity
In love so endlessly
And when the living ends you’ll see
It’s never over
[instrumental]
I’ve got a first-class ticket to the afterlife
And we’ll forever be together when it comes your time
And we will spend eternity
Bathed in love so endlessly
‘Cause when your life is done you’ll see
It’s never over - Track Name: Governing Dynamics - Alive Again
-
I saw you on the bus
That I take because I don't own a car
(And because I kind of like watching people)
Has anyone ever had the nerve to tell you
Kind of beautiful
I know just what you're gonna say
I know sometimes I seem unstable
(You've got some good instincts)
Here's a proposition:
I've just gotta get you on my table
(But not quite like you think, because)
Whenever you're gone
I'll feel alive again
I'll feel alive again
Just like I've never been
Whenever you're gone
I'll feel alive again
Just like I always do
When things come to an end
Did I say that out loud?
That probably came out a little desperate
(I don't mean to smother)
You were so busy staring at me
That I think you just missed your exit
(But I'll find you another)
You seem strong and proud (and I like that)
But this doesn't have to be so strange
(And awkwardly quiet)
I think I make you wanna scream
And that's kinda flattering
(Go ahead and do it, pretty soon you'll be silent)
Once that we're done
I'll feel alive again
I'll feel alive again
I'll come around this bend
Once that we're done
I'll feel alive again
I'm gonna need your help
Can't do it by myself
So here we are.
The big reveal.
I've left clues lying about.
My love is brief.
But it's so real.
So have you figured me out?
Now that you're dead
I feel alive again
I feel alive again
Just like I've never been
Now that you're dead
I feel alive again
Just like I always do
When all pretty things end
Now that you're dead
I feel alive again
I feel alive again
Just like I've never been
Now that you're dead
I feel alive again
All the brand new sins
Make me a brand new man
...Until I need to feel alive again - Track Name: Caleb Hines - Haven't You Ever
-
[Verse 1]
Haven't you ever wished that you never had to go to work again?
Haven't you ever wanted a fancy car? Or maybe five or ten?
And wouldn't you like to use a gold-plated toothbrush?
Or write with a silver pen?
Well these are a few,
Of the things I can do,
Now that I have gotten the news:
[Chorus]
That you're dead.... (You're dead)
And now your attorney,
Gave me all your money.
You're dead... (You're dead)
What's left of your treasure,
Is left to my pleasure,
So now I can do all those things I've been dying to do.
You can't take it with you,
So I think I'll take it from you.
[Verse 2]
Maybe I'll go and fill up a swimming pool with lots of frozen peas.
Maybe I'll buy a football arena, and stuff it full of nacho cheese.
And just for the grins, I'll take the state of Rhode Island,
and decorate all it's trees.
And then I'll go buy,
A full-life-time supply,
Of disposable shoes.
[Chorus]
'Cause you're dead... (You're dead)
And now your attorney,
Gave me all your money.
You're dead... (You're dead)
What's left of your treasure,
Is left to my pleasure,
So now I can do all those things I've been dying to do.
You can't take it with you,
So I think I'll take it from you.
[Verse 3]
I'll have a fleet of personal jets that I will teach myself to fly.
Every morning, I'll start the day by parachuting from the sky.
I'll climb up mount Everest, and then go cave-diving,
And maybe one day I'll die?
But who would receive,
All the things that I'd leave?
It wouldn't really matter to me:
[Final Chorus]
When I'm dead... (I'm dead)
I think my attorney,
Would take all my money,
When I'm dead... (I'm dead)
I'd spent all that treasure,
On nothing but pleasure,
I wanted to do all the things I was dying to do.
I can't take it with me,
So someone would take it from me. - Track Name: Jason Morris - Burning For You
-
Your Golden hair down to your waist
I glance at you and you look away
You're the only girl who's ever caught my eye
In the corner of the room I sit
I was always scared out of my wits
I can never find the words to say what's on my mind
But I finally found a way to shake this off
A way to show you just what you have lost
I'm gonna burn myself into your mind
Because im burning for you
They said that you're out of my league
That you are just too good for me
They said that I could never make you mine
But I can't wait to see you face
as I watch you watch me immolate
The love I have for you cant be denied.
Just a little bit of has to soak the cloth
an itty bitty spark will set things off
im gonna burn myself into your mind
You know Im' burning for you
Well it's dangerous combination
When loneliness and desperation
and a little obsession crash
And it's with grim determination
That I hold this burning match
everyone will know my name
and how your brought my life to ashes
Cause I'm burning for you - Track Name: Inverse T. Clown - Caroline Is Dead
-
I came home to Caroline every single day
I'd bring her favorite brand of wine and flowers, too, of course
But then, one day, that gal o' mine, she up and walked away
Straight to her attorney, to file for divorce
Well, I grew up a poor kid, and I can tell you now,
I don't let people take my things, no way, no how
She said that we were over, and I took that in stride
But imagine my relief when I heard that she died
She left the lawyer's office, tried to cross the street
Didnt see the karma truck, now she's dead meat
Oh, Caroline is dead,
Caroline is dead
I mean, yeah, it's sad she's laid out on the slab
But on the bright side she bought it while we were still wed
There won't be a divorce, wasitng cash on the courts
And, inevitably, giving half to that whore
I'm not gonna lie
It brings a tear to my eye
That I get to keep all my stuff
I get to keep my money, my savings sure are safe
I get to keep my marble bust of Matt from "Melrose Place"
I get to keep the penthouse suite, I get to keep the Benz
And now, since there's no pickin' sides, I'm keepin' all my friends
I get to keep the labrador, I get to keep her cat
But give me just a couple days and I'll send that one back
Oh, Caroline is dead,
Caroline is dead
I'm sure it would suck getting hit by a truck
With the whole tractor/trailer impaled thru your head
But it's perfectly timed, and I'm happy to find
That I'm single again and it won't cost a dime
I'm not gonna lie
It brings a tear to my eye
That I get to keep all my stuff
Maybe this isn't the way
That a husband should handle a eulogy
But right now, I really don't care
Beause she tried to make a fool of me
Maybe next time she'll be a little bit considerate
And think about the gravity of her unchained rapacity
And then she might become contrite and try to set her errors right
But wait, no, I'm wrong 'cause she's dead
You know, I really loved her, that's why we tied the knot
But I guess she was never satisfied with what she got
It seems she planned to pilfer my possessions and abscond
But all she took was a truck to the face and beyond
Yes, the Good Lord did smite her, and smiled on me
So I don't have to fight her to keep the t.v.
Oh, Caroline is dead,
Caroline is dead
It might seem unfair that I'm walkin' on air
But she was gonna take my stuff, and now she's too dead!
Now I'm free to procure all that I can afford
And there's no greedy bitch in my way anymore
And I'm not gonna lie
It brings a tear to my eye
That I get to keep all my stuff - Track Name: Steve Durand - Die Happy
-
I was feeling kind of forlorn
Your fate is sealed the moment you're born
But life is something that you just can't quit
So I resolved to make the most of it
Won't waste the effort to sweat the small stuff
I'll spend more time with those that I love
Since I'll just end up in a box in a hole
To die happy is my lifetime goal
A single life is all one gets
So I'll live mine so I have no regrets
Don't let precious time go to waste
I've got no time for anger, malice, or hate
I'll visit people I'm gonna miss
Punch every ticket on my bucket list
And in the end I'll have the final laugh
With "He died happy" as my epitaph
When you gotta go you got to go
And you won't knw the time or the place
But when my turn comes around
I'll be going with a smile on my face
I'll visit people I'm gonna miss
Punch every ticket on my bucket list
And in the end I'll have the final laugh
With "He died happy" as my epitaph
Cone on, dance with me now
This here is what you call a shuffle
A shuffle off this mortal coil
I'll visit people I'm gonna miss
Punch every ticket on my bucket list
And in the end I'll have the final laugh
With "He died happy" as my epitaph - Track Name: "Buckethat" Bobby Matheson - No Worries
-
There once was a time when I had prospects
I was always anxious for what was in store.
But here in this hospital bed,
I'm smiling 'cause I'll soon be dead
and I won't be worrying about it anymore.
It's not like I wanted this to happen.
It's not like I was hoping for it all to end.
I've been cut down in my prime,
and I'm glad I'm nearly out of time,
because dying means I won't have to pretend.
And I won't be worrying about the rent, or my job, or the laundry
and I won't be bothered by the anthills on the front lawn
And I won't be worried 'bout another single thing from this point on.
Because this time tomorrow, I'll be gone.
I don't know why I feel the need to say this.
I gues it could be the drugs they put in my veins
But don't let that take away
from what it is I'm trying to say.
My mind is clear: No fear, no threat, no pain
And I won't be worrying about the rent, or my job, or the laundry
and I won't be bothered by the anthills on the front lawn.
And I won't be worried 'bout another single thing from this point on.
Because this time tomorrow, I'll be gone.
And I won't be worried about war or disease or recession
and I won't be bothered by the way the world has gone wrong.
And I won't be worried 'bout another single thing from this point on.
Because this time tomorrow, I'll be gone. - Track Name: Tally Deushane - My Dead Goldfish

I won you at the fair when I knocked down some milk crates
And for our first week or two things were going great
I thought our time together was fleeting and that was fine by me
But then you went and got so needy and I started to see
That maybe you'd be in that bowl for the rest of eternity
But then you took your last fishy breath of water
And I sighed a sigh of relief
You had a good long life, which would have been fine
But I only wanted you for a week
You're my dead goldfish
And I'm glad you finally croaked
You're my dead goldfish
And I'm glad to see you float...at the top of your bowl
Normally a flushing,
Would be soul crushing
But instead of tearing
I was cheering "Hip Hip Hooray!
As I sent you to your watery grave
I didn't even name you, because I thought it wouldn't last
But you just kept swimming as the days and months flew past
I couldn't bring myself to murder, so I never overfed
I even cleaned your water, though I had started to dread
That the day would never come that I'd find you dead
But then you took your last fishy breath of water
And ate your last fish food flake
You're dead and gone, and I can't deny that
My heart didn't even break
You're my dead goldfish
And I'm glad you finally croaked
You're my dead goldfish
And I'm glad to see you float...at the top of your bowl
Normally a flushing,
Would be soul crushing
But instead of tearing
I was cheering "Hip Hip Hooray!

there comes a time in everybody's life
when you're past your prime and you hear the chimes
you go to sleep at night and see the light
bright white and guides you to the other side
it seems to me that there's those that can't handle death
they see it as an end but like gandalf said
the journey doesn't end here. death is just another path
the grey curtain of this world rolls back n turns to silver glass
and some might say that i'm just being optimisitc
what proof is there of an afterlife they insist and
say that we just decay and that's a lonely thought
and it goes against everything I was once taught
that we're simply visitors to this planet
if you have a chance at love then grab it
whatever you want you can have it
make the memories with the life that you inhabit
we all live our lives one step at a time
just remember when you die and cross the finishing line
that you left a memory on all those left behind
you will see them once again cos in the end you'll find that
we all live our lives one step at a time
just remember when you die and cross the finishing line
that you left a memory on all those left behind
you will see them once again cos in the end you'll find that
death is the next part of life
come again? yea you heard what i said!
you my friend! are in way over your head
you defend, that it's all a sad event
well i don't care this is a happy song about death
and no i'm not leading no suicide pact
i'm just here trying to establish the fact
that maybe you should take and follow my advice
and see death as a celebration of one's life
like the irish do, we're gonna drink that brew
it's true i took this from p.s. i love you
it's all good, that was pretty great movie
about how you get by and see life's beauty
and i know the afterlife is still a mystery
people fight over religion all through history
it doesn't matter to me, what you believe
cos we're all gonna float away on that cosmic sea
we all live our lives one step at a time
just remember when you die and cross the finishing line
that you left a memory on all those left behind
you will see them once again cos in the end you'll find that
we all live our lives one step at a time
just remember when you die and cross the finishing line
that you left a memory on all those left behind
you will see them once again cos in the end you'll find that
death is the next part of life
atheists saying that there's nothing afterwards
this our life for better or for worst
atheists saying that there's nothing afterwards
this our life for better or for worst
i refuse to believe that i will just cease to be
but most religions seem to be a gossip magazine
i refuse to believe that i will just cease to be
but most religions seem to be a gossip magazine
I - Refuse - to - believe
that i - will just - cease - to - be!
i refuse to believe that i will just cease to be
but most religions seem to be a gossip magazine
and they don't work for me but i have hope for an afterlife
i might be a hypocrit but whatever helps you sleep at night
we all live our lives one step at a time
just remember when you die and cross the finishing line
that you left a memory on all those left behind
you will see them once again cos in the end you'll find that

Jo Jo was a man
Who had a best laid plan
Such amazing things he could become
Alas, there was a lady
Power mad and so shady
And she kept him down right under her thumb
When she failed to duck
A sanitation truck
Ding dong! She was finally gone
Without that witch Loretta
Jo Jo knew he'd be better
Off he went to turn his happy life on
All over
All over
When it's over, you can finally just be
All over
All over
When it's over, you can finally be free
Found a gal named Sal
To boost his own morale
What she'd do for him, there was no end
He headed for the top
It seemed he just could not stop
But not only Jo Jo needed a friend
Stumbled on her cries
He saw it in her eyes
How he'd take but he hardly would give
He saw what he'd become
He kept her under his thumb
He wondered, was he still deserving to live?
All over
All over
When it's over, you can finally just be
All over
All over
When it's over, you can finally be free
To leave her like that
Would just be one more selfish thing
He had no right
But if he stayed 'round
To make it up, that just might bring
Him to the light
From that very day
The two would find a way
To be giving as good as they'd get
Yeah, Sal and good ol' Jo Jo
Found the way to their mojo
Was to live a life they wouldn't regret
Even at the end
They still could both depend
On each other to see it all through
The worse as well as better
They forgave even Loretta
And when they were gone, the two of them knew
All over
All over
When it's over, you can finally just be
All over

When it's over, you can finally be free

Life is such a difficult thing for me to do
All these decisions to make about me and you
Do we go out or do I invite you in?
Would you like wine, or should I offer gin?
But amidst all this uncertainty there is one constant fact
Although it's not polite to say and lacks a certain tact
This knowledge that I have tells me to do the best I can
Because we're all going to die some day
I don't know how or in what way
But we are all going to die some day
Maybe you'll be hit by a car tomorrow in Islington
Maybe the wings will fall off my plane and then I'm done
Will it be next week or will it be next year?
We know it's going to happen so what's the point of fear?
But amidst all this uncertainty there is one constant fact
Although it's not polite to say and lacks a certain tact
This knowledge that I have tells me to do the best I can
Because we're all going to die some day
I don't know how or in what way
But we are all going to die some day
Next week or tomorrow
Next month or today
Let's just enjoy the moment
And savour every day
Because we're all going to die some day
I don't know how or in what way
But we are all going to die
We're all going to die

On Monday they gave me a white linen suit
Did I know why? Did I know why?
On Tuesday I met an angel --she was cute
And she could fly She could fly
On Wednesday we went dancing in the rain
She said there’s something I may have to explain
Notice that your feet aren’t touching the floor
Did you like it when we drifted right through the front door?
Hey, did I die? Please don’t cry
Hey, did I die? Please don’t cry
But you don’t have to worry about your telephone bills
You don’t have to care if smoking kills
You don’t have to worry about job interviews
You don’t have to worry about the evening news
So I died? Yes, you died
You reside On the other side
On the other side
Instrumental
Well, I don’t have to worry about sudden chest pain
I don’t have an image to maintain
I don’t care if my clothes are out or in
I don’t have to worry if eating is a sin . . .
And now there’s time to wait for the Cubbies to win
Odds are thin But they will win
Is that a grin? They’re gonna win

Now I know why Now I know why
There’s my friend the angel—she sure is cute

And we can fly On the other side

Death! Death! Death! Death!
Kids, sing along to this happy song.
It’s easy; there’s nothing to it.
It’s a song about Death.
Death is so darn cool.
Everyone is doing it.
Your father, your mother,
Your sister, your brother,
Even the ones who aren’t born yet.
It’s why grandpa’s not here.
Let us do the cheer:
D E A T H spells what?
It’s Death. DEATH! Take your last breath.
Embrace Death. Death!
Try some Death, kids, it ain’t so bad.
Drink the stuff under the sink; try on that bag.
Everyone’s doing it: elders and kids.
From “natural causes” all the way down to SIDS.
Mr. Rogers, Jim Henson, Captain Kangaroo,
And the Crocodile Hunter are waiting for you.
Dr. Seuss, Macho Man, and plenty more.
The guy from the Wiggles don’t wiggle anymore.
Try Death! DEATH! Take your last breath.
Embrace Death. DEATH! Death.
Imagine no more church or chores.
Imagine an end to being poor.
Imagine having no more debt.
Who needs money when you are dead?
Imagine no more stupid baths.
No more homework. No more school.
Imagine no more bedtimes because
You are Always Asleep! “COOL!”
It’s death. DEATH! Take your last breath.
Embrace Death. DEATH! Death..
In my rat-a-tat rap of a deathly prose
I suppose I compose that I decompose:
Understand, take my hand, don’t fear the Reaper:
Robe like a Jedi, hair like a Bieber.
Immortality is off yo’ wishlist
Unless you is motherf&%in jellyfishes.
Though I admit ghosts and shit are the illest:
“I see dead people, BRUCE WILLIS”
What the heck’s that bangin’ ho?
Quit knock knock knockin on heavens do'!
The Lion King knows about the Circle of Life
Like Nicole knows about OJ’s lucky knife.
The presence of death makes us equal, meth head
So get off my Temperpedic Craftamatic deathbed.
One death is tragic, a bunch a statistic.
The report of my death is exaggerated, bitches!
Death! Death! Death! Death!
Ok, now kids, I’d like to make a toast to Death
Raise your glasses of Kool-Aid…

She sits alone in her fathers shop
With her father's words and needs
She cannot have what he cannot rule
So lonely she must be
She watches through frosted glass
From the window sill
Sits and waits and holds her breath
Carries out his will
Daydreaming again
She is scheming again
She listens to the radio
To reach outside these walls
Hearing songs of love by girls
Empassioned by their words
She slowly molds a quiet plan
To break out her cage
She lies in wait when they're alone
Waits to spring her trap
She dares to dream again
She is scheming again
Accross the wooden boards
In bare feet she creeps
Careful as a mouse
That they do not creak
She sneaks into his room
In the darkest black
The moon streaks on his bony face
No courage does she lack
So she grabs the pillow
And she smothers him the night
And as he kicks and struggles
It is a dreadful sight
But she presses down with all her strength
To remove his blight
And when he's still and all is still
She knows she's done right
No more dreaming again
No more dreaming again - Track Name: The Boffo Yux Dudes - Marked For Death

Just because you're marked for death
Doesn't mean you have to fret
Just look that grimace in the face and
you will find your happy place.
The man in black has a jones for your soul
but he's not gonna get it when you're on a roll
so bite me I'm not gonna pay you the toll
'cause I'm marked for death
Just because he's got your name
Doesn't mean the end's the same
You're just a number on his chart
and he's come to steal your heart. Literally!
The man in black has a jones for your soul
He's got him a blade on the end of a pole
so bite me I'm not gonna pay you the toll
'cause I'm marked for death
Just because he wants you dead
Doesn't mean you'll kick in bed
It's rude to expire during sex
but if you're lucky he'll take your ex
The man in black has a jones for your soul
You in a box is his ultimate goal
so bite me I'm not gonna pay you the toll
'cause I'm marked for death
Hey! Get the bloody hell out of here! Just because you have a creepy robe and terrible hygiene doesn't mean you get to take me on a trip down the river Styx.
Who the hell do you think you are? ohhh.. I'm scared! Go point that bony finger
somewhere else - i'm not buying it!
Just because you're marked for death
Doesn't mean you have to fret
Just look that grimace in the face and
you will find your happy place.
Just because he wants you dead

Oh beating heart, will you be still
go do your part to do my will
we stray from the steps threaded here
aways and means we held so dear
I'm not comin' home
I want to know
why I want to know
who laid false claim at my feet
while you've got me beat
on all counts
I have no doubts
I'm coming around the right way
those sibling letters lying on the shelf
are all remains of an unsteady self
who dare bet against his bone
to finally let go his tongue
no sirens here
this last venture
the only way to be sure
who laid false claim at my feet
while you've got me beat
on all counts
I have no doubts
I'm going out the right way
I just want you to know
there was no way you could know
you can't take this from me

Ohh When we were young
(Maybe twelve or so)
We met out by
The lake
We hit it off
We ran around and played
But our parents didn’t want us to
Date
But that was ok
We still saw one another
They couldn’t keep us
Apart
We got engaged
Then we were married
That’s how I threw my
Life away
But now you’re gone!
Though it’s still kind of sad
I’ve got my freedom
Back
I’ll go to the bar
I’ll go out and buy a pool
My new life is about to
Start
We’re here at the wake
I have to look real sad
So your parents don’t
Suspect
That I was the one

Dainty, wonderful

We are gathered here today
To celebrate the life and mourn the loss
Of Mrs. Jane P. Adams
Who brought happiness wherever she went
And is remembered by her parents, friends
And loving husband of four years
The crowd disappears
And I am left alone
Grinning like a
Fool
How could I know
It wouldn’t be too hard
To trade her dear life for
Mine?
I’m making a plan
I’m getting on my way
To live like I want
To
I’ll find me a girl
We’ll get married
And then I’ll end it

She’ll pass away

Thank You
I’m a little choked up and I’m not sure where to start

With a past as bad as we’ve had it came as a surprise
Your thoughtfulness has tears of joy streaming from my eyes
I guess that i just really want to say
Thank you for dying
Now I don’t have to kill you
Thank you for dying
Now I don’t have to kill you
You might think I’d be bitter, after all that I had planned
But I got my deposit back on that old cargo van
Besides, the drive would have been horribly inconvenient
Four whole states away to where the sentencing is lenient
I needed this wood chipper anyway

Isn’t It Nice
By JoAnn Abbott
I was frightened, every morning, of the bullies in class
They would punch me, they would trip me, stab their pens in my ass
Steal my money, my new jacket; leave it torn in the trash-
Until the day I got some chocolates for my birthday
Whitman’s sampler- lots of flavors; got a new pet fish too
Read the box of algae killer and I knew what to do
Careful cutting, careful mixing, placed where only I knew
Then I gladly shared the box of candy the next morning
Chorus
And isn’t it nice to have a friend?
To share in the good and the bad times-
To stay with you till the bitter end?
Just remember that it isn’t nice to steal
Nibbled chocolates through the morning, shared with teachers I liked
Only safe ones- I’m not stupid. Kept the ones which were spiked
Then at recess they were waiting, I knew that they would strike
As they knocked me down and ate my box of chocolates.
I wonder if they wondered why
I stayed down and wouldn’t cry
As they smashed the empty box
I tried not to smile!
So I picked up all the pieces as they wandered away
And my secret smile was growing through the rest of that day
I was filled with satisfaction as their faces turned grey
The flashing lights felt almost like a party
And isn’t it nice to be a friend?
To share in the good and the bad times-
To stay with you till the bitter end
Just remember that it isn’t nice to steal
Just remember that it isn’t nice to steal - Track Name: Glen Raphael - When You're Dead

In life
You hear a lot of complaining
In this world
people are kind of cruel
Nothing is free; there's too much bad TV
Everyone's critical
In work, at home, in school
I don't have a clean solution but this might clear your head:
All of your woes - conflicts with all of your foes -
That'll be over when you're dead
Oh, when you're dead
And when you're dead
You won't have to pay the mortgage
Dead, all your chores are done
(your race is run)
In life
You never have the right umbrella
In this world
Nothing goes as planned
You're out in the rain
Words can not contain
A world that's full of pain and hits you where you stand
I don't have a clean solution
But you can take this instead
All that's wrong
It'll all be gone
This'll be over when you're dead (Oh, when you're dead)
And when you're dead
You won't have to do the laundry
You won't need a date (you know you're late)
In life
Everything's a disappointment
In this world
Things just take too long
From young and weak to old and meek
Always peeking into
Places you don't belong
I guess I'll never understand it
But it's the life I led
Dazed and confused, asked and refused
It'll be over when you're dead
Yeah when you're pushing daisies
Nothing can harm you when you're dead
Oh, when you're dead! - Track Name: Luke Brekke, Esquire - Cannibal

Verse I
Every man I find will have to fall stone dead tonight
All the women shrink from me and shrilly scream in fright
The children run in fear because they know that I will bite
The weaker-hearted faint when I come slowly into sight
Pre-chorus I
I'll use their veins as bookmarks
I'll squeeze their eyes for jam
I'll cook their flesh so it looks dark
I'll smoke their thighs to ham
Chorus
(Because he's a cannibal) I devour the humans I can catch
(Because he's a cannibal) Into the oven I put another batch
(He'll eat your daughter Annabelle) Your children I shall snatch
(Because he's a cannibal) To your meat I've become attached
Verse II
I'll put your family in a pot and make quite a nice stew
I'll grind your bones to grain, to alcohol I'll brew
For the rest of time your friends will learn to rue
The day that I came and thought that I'd come after you
Pre-chorus II
I'll knit your hair to sweaters
Your toes are paperweights
I'll add spice so you taste better
My stomach is your fate
Chorus
(Because he's a cannibal) I devour the humans I can catch
(Because he's a cannibal) Into the oven I put another batch
(He'll eat your daughter Annabelle) Your children I shall snatch
(Because he's a cannibal) To your meat I've become attached
Bridge
You gather in your churches
You pray I don't come nearer
I find you in my searches
And approach you with a shearer

Last night while i was sleepin'
In my dreams, someone was creepin'.
I asked from where they came
They shook their head and said "What a shame.
I'm your family from long ago.
Way before you were born.
Take my hand and follow me.
Where we go just wait and see.
Boy, this is where your family goes when they die.
Son, don't cry when you have to leave your friends behind.
You'll find that life is better here;
Livin' without evil or fear.
I asked them why they're showin me this place.
They said "Son, I am sorry to say.
Boy, you've already joined us,
and from the life you were living this place is a plus,
and now that your life is done
you can come and join everyone.
You may be sad that you are gone.
You weren't even warned before dawn.
Boy this is where you came
when you died.
You didn't cry when you
had to leave your friends behind.
You have found that life is better here. You are
livin' without evil or fear.
And now that you have joined us in this place
I see a smile upon your face. - Track Name: Mick Bordet - The Highland Coo Song (Shadow)

There you stand, majestic, at the foot of the glen
Maintaining your composure in the biting wind and rain
Take a good long look around, you'll not be here again
The lorry comes to pick you up tomorrow
You're gonna be my burger
You're gonna be my steak
We'll slice and dice and barbecue you
This evening by the lake
You just look so damn tasty
You great big hairy coo
I wanna run right over there
And lick you
I'm told it will be humane and you'll surely feel no pain
Your short time of discomfort will be my belly's gain
There's not one bit of you will go to waste, I'm glad to say
Your strong tanned hide will make a splendid jacket
You're gonna be my burger
You're gonna be my steak
We'll slice and dice and barbecue you
This evening by the lake
You just look so damn tasty
You great big hairy coo
I wanna run right over there
And lick you
You're gonna be my burger
You're gonna be my steak
We'll slice and dice and barbecue you
This evening by the lake
You just look so damn tasty
You great big hairy coo
I wanna run right over there
And lick you
I wanna run right over there and lick you.

there was a mourning waltz
it was a happy dirge
we hired a new orleans band
cuz you were under the earth
it was a happy time
you were wasting away
we were testing our bonds
and on your final day
we came to bury you
we came to put you under
we came to bury you
we came to drink you under
but as we danced … upon your grave
the earth heaved up … we were not brave …
you came back
THEN WE CALLED BUFFY SUMMERS
there was a ninja waltz
it was a fight to the death
there was a chorus line
you had really bad-bad breath
there was a moment or two
when you thought you’d win
when her strength gave out
AND THEN ANGEL STEPPED IN
we came to bury you
we came to put you under
we came to bury you
we came to drink you under
we came with our stakes
we came with our knives
we came with our crossbows
we came in the middle of the night - Track Name: David Ritter - Requiem For Bob (Shadow)

Death and sorrow to follow all night long
But it sounds happy when a banjo's in the song
Death and suffering, malfeasance in there too
See it's happy when a banjo's in the tune
I've been scared to die since July
My old lady's car burst out in flames
She died that day and left me all alone
No casket just a box of ash
In the night I went to her grave
I decided to be brave
I headed to the grave
The moon was shining bright
To visit my old lady
in the night
as I was crying
footsteps I could hear
I stopped, listened intently
with fear
A dark figure did approach me
in the night
The smell of death was on his breath
Gave me such a fright
and he sang
Death and sorrow to follow all night long
But it sounds happy when a banjo's in the song
Death and suffering, malfeasance in there too
See it's happy when a banjo's in the tune
After his song was done I bid him night
He wasn't through and hooked me with delight
He swung his axe'jo right through my leg
I was hopping as I begged
I wasn't fast enough and he took another swing
He lopped my other leg, I noticed something
A fresh grave by my lady, dug beside of me
Dug there by this creepy beast
He rolled me into that ole hole
My eyes as big as ox
Then he tossed a familiar thing
My old lady's ashes
My old lady's box
My beloved in her tomb
And he sang
Death and sorrow to follow all night long
But it sounds happy when a banjo's in the song
Death and suffering, malfeasance in there too
See it's happy when a banjo's in the tune - Track Name: Heather Miller - Throw My Anchor Down (Shadow)

Gonna throw my anchor down
Gonna hold my head up high
Gonna claim this brave new world
In the name of you and I
Gonna throw my anchor down
Gonna hold my head up high
Gonna claim this brave new world
In the name of you and I
I’m leaving behind everything I know
to follow the calling deep within my soul
Don’t know what awaits me on the distant shore
But the sweet siren song, I can no more ignore
Dreams I have aplenty, possessions I have few
My compass it is broken, but my heart is true
The waters they are fearsome and dangers do abound
The passage way is scattered with ships that ran aground
If I can make my way, if I can soldier on
the life that I once knew, will be dead and gone
and that golden prize will at last be won
So I’m
Gonna throw my anchor down
Gonna hold my head up high
Gonna claim this brave new world
In the name of you and I
Gonna throw my anchor down
Gonna hold my head up high
Gonna claim this brave new world
In the name of you and I - Track Name: Anna P - Jesus's Best Friend (Shadow)

Finally, I'm dead.
I'm so glad I finally got here
This place they call heaven
I really had my doubts
After, the other day, I dropped the F bomb again
God smiles at me as the gate parts
I know that I'm free, so where do I start?
I'll wear wigs with Washington
Sing songs with Sinatra
Create my own world
Become a Pokemon master.
But if all else fails
It won't matter 'cause time won't end
I'll just sit back and be Jesus's best friend.
Jesus's best friend.
But I'd really like to shake Shakespeare's hand
And speak a line or two
Or have a word with Walt Disney,
And ask why he hated…being accused.
I'll wear wigs with Washington
Sing songs with Sinatra
Create my own world
Become a Pokemon master.
But if all else fails
It won't matter 'cause time won't end
I'll just sit back and be Jesus's best friend.
Jesus's best friend
But if all else fails
It won't matter 'cause I love the view
But I really want a Pikachu
I'll just be Jesus's best friend. - Track Name: Donutworthy - Signal (Shadow)

he world that was was burned away
By second cars and LCD displays
We took our chance in a recycled can
To tread the stars before any man
We fled the night the signal died
We are the very last
We fled the night the signal died
Unshackled by the past
We broke the crib of Mother Earth
And lost whatever it was worth
But we can try and start it over
On the world where we lay anchor
We left the day the signal died
We are the very last
We left the day the signal died
Unshackled by the past
Without magistrates and voodoo
We can finally be true
To the ideals that others amended
We're free now that the signal's died
We are the very last
We're free now that the signal's died
Unshackled by the past - Track Name: Green Mama Bathsalts - See You In Hell (Shadow)

We had our share of good times
We had a laugh or two
But now it seems our time is done
And here we have to pay our dues
We never knew a life of straight and narrow
We never said a word of true repent
But loyalties were always held
Stuck together till the end
I know we’ll meet again
I know we’ll meet again
My friend
And now we stand here side to side
Just like we have so many times
We spent our lives together, living well
I cannot say I have regrets
Despite the ropes around our necks
If the good book is correct
I’ll see you in Hell
I told ‘em that I didn’t know the gun was loaded
You told ‘em it was just an act of self defense
But nothing we have said has helped
To get them to believe that we are innocent
I’d like to think that there is something after
Even though I know for me it won’t be cool
I figure at least I’ll be in good company
And when I get there I’ll be looking for you
I know we’ll meet again
I know we’ll meet again
My friend
And now we stand here side to side
Just like we have so many times
We spent our lives together, living well
I cannot say I have regrets
Despite the ropes around our necks
If the good book is correct
I’ll see you in Hell - Track Name: Common Lisp - Today Is Not That Day (Shadow)

There will come a day
When I will die
When you will die
When all we are has passed away
Today is not
Today is not
Today is not that day
There will be a time
When all we are is not
When everything we've got
Will not be ours, and that's OK
Today is not
Today is not
Today is not that day
No one can know the hour
The hour or the moment
Dance like your heart's on fire
Dance like it's your last chance
And when we are no more
We will join the dance
The dance of all who were
Everyone who was and will be gone
Today is here
Today is all
Today is not
Today is not
Today is not that day
