Sitting on a hard chair try to sit straight
|
Sitting on a hard chair this moment won't wait
|
Listening to the speakers, they're talking about you
|
Look at all the people, all the people you knew
|
|
Sitting with my back straight it becomes hard to hear
|
Some people are crying, it becomes hard to hear
|
I don't think you'd have liked it, you would have made a joke
|
You would have made it easier, you'd say "tomorrow I'm smoke"
|
|
Sitting on a hard chair how far we have come
|
Trying hard to listen to your friends who have come
|
Some of them are famous and some are just like me
|
Trying hard to listen trying hard to see
|
|
Sitting in a hard chair it's over time to stand
|
Some people are crying, I turn to grab your hand
|
It's your daughter saying thank you
|
You, you would have made a joke
|
"Isn't this something," you'd say, "tomorrow I'm smoke"
|
