lyrics

I Won’t Argue When I’m Dead

You can burn my abused and my broken dead body
When the time comes for me to depart
Then again, I think I’d rather that you buried me
But then, I’ve never liked bugs
And I’m terrified you’d bury me alive

I’m letting you decide how to get rid of me when I die
Please bear in mind that I don’t like fire or confined spaces neither
I’m letting you decide how to get rid of me when I die
I give you my word I won’t argue when I’m dead

I flirted with the notion of a crypt I could be stored in
But, I’d worry about being vandalised or stolen
I considered the romance of being cast unto the ocean
But I remembered how deep it is
And I never did learn how to swim

I’m letting you decide how to get rid of me when I die
Please bear in mind that I’m scared of fish and I don’t like graveyards neither
I’m letting you decide how to get rid of me when I die
I give you my word I won’t argue when I’m dead

I thought about donating my remains to medical science
But honestly, there’s not much left to give
My lungs are black, my kidneys are pickled,
My brain is as useful as what’s left of my liver…
But with hindsight, man, I had a damn fine time being alive

I’m letting you decide how to get rid of me when I die
Please bear in mind that I’m scared of scalpels and I don’t dig doctors neither
I’m letting you decide how to get rid of me when I die
I give you my word I won’t argue when I’m dead

I’m letting you decide how to get rid of me when I die
Please bear in mind that I’m scared of dying and the thought of nothing after
I’m letting you decide how to get rid of me when I die
I give you my word I won’t argue when I’m…
I give you my word I won’t argue when I’m…
I give you my word I won’t argue when I’m dead
