Make sure I look good
In a casket
Dress me up real nice
Sure I might be dead
But at least I'm attractive
And you're gonna miss me tonight
I want you to play good music at my funeral
Nobody will pay attention
Till I'm here no more
I want you to stay reminiscent
Of the beat in my heart
I want you to play
I want you to play
I want you to play good music at my funeral
Nobody will pay attention
Till I'm here no more
I want you to stay reminiscent
Of the beat in my heart
I want you to play
I want you to play
Life is just a breath
A passing shadow
You might run out of time
Yeah I'm all alone
Write this song on my tombstone
Maybe I'll be recognized
I want you to play good music at my funeral
Nobody will pay attention
Till I'm here no more
I want you to stay reminiscent
Of the beat of my heart
I want you to play
I want you to play
I want you to play good music at my funeral
Nobody will pay attention
Till I'm here no more
I want you to stay reminiscent
Of the beat of my heart
I want you to play
I want you to play
Somehow only death wakes us up to life
Now you notice those
You never gave the time
Find the meaning to this empty life
Pay attention tonight
I want you to play good music at my funeral
Nobody will pay attention
Till I'm here no more
I want you to stay reminiscent
Of the beat of my heart
I want you to play
I want you to play
I want you to play good music at my funeral
Nobody will pay attention
Till I'm here no more
I want you to stay reminiscent
Of the beat of my heart
I want you to play
I want you to play
