lyrics

Look I'm sorry shes dead
but you'll ruin the spread
the coleslaw will curdle
the congregations toes curl.

If you air your woes
In rhyme and not prose
what is it with bad funeral poetry?

Each line a crass rhyme
was the tumor benign
though the tests inconclusive
it seems dieing has proved it
Shes with the angels now
and the Princess Of Wales now
hit me with it
Bad funeral poetry.

Bad funeral poetry, bad funeral poetry
a stark and strange beauty all of its own.

We ate fish and chips at the solar eclipse
You burnt out your retina on that pin hole projector.
And so many more stories, past crimes and past glories
confined by a rhyme for bad funeral poetry

Bad funeral poetry, bad funeral poetry
a stark and strange beauty all of its own.
Bad funeral poetry, bad funeral poetry
a stark and strange beauty all of its own.

A rhyme is so final
so done and dusted
so neatly concluded
so ticked off a list
But memories linger
they dream and they wake
they flicker like candles
on your last Birthday cake.

Bad funeral poetry, bad funeral poetry
a stark and strange beauty all of its own.
Bad funeral poetry, bad funeral poetry
a stark and strange beauty all of its own.
