The Lyrics
A group of gravediggers are assigned the task of burying a man who died of unknown means.
Bury the guy who’s dead
We bury the guy who’s dead
What caused his death?
A lack of breath?
Or maybe was overfed
That fact was never said
But we bury the guy who’s dead
Bury the guy who’s dead
We bury the guy who’s dead
Perhaps was slain
Fell of f a train
Or someone bashed his head
So many a tear be shed
As we bury the guy who’s dead
Bury the guy who’s dead
We bury the guy who’s dead
Because we think
His corpse will stink
If we left him out instead
So though this job we dread
We bury the guy who’s dead
We bury the guy who’s dead
What caused his death?
A lack of breath?
Or maybe was overfed
That fact was never said
But we bury the guy who’s dead
Bury the guy who’s dead
We bury the guy who’s dead
Perhaps was slain
Fell of f a train
Or someone bashed his head
So many a tear be shed
As we bury the guy who’s dead
Bury the guy who’s dead
We bury the guy who’s dead
Because we think
His corpse will stink
If we left him out instead
So though this job we dread
We bury the guy who’s dead

What a tremendous "undertaking". it's now 5-5-5 under. ;D
I'm not sure why, but I'm sure it's so that this is a much needed treatment of a difficult subject. Well done. 555
creepy yet bouncy
Those guys who died must have lost their heads. (singing): "He's going to lose his head, so bury that guy who's dead!" Dead on satire! 555!
