(Verse)
|
Hatches matches then dispatches
|
All in the embers of my ashes
|
Thy will was done
|
Oh wipe that worry from your face
|
You¡¯ll die when you see my new face but
|
Do the time
|
You¡¯re in for life
|
|
(Chorus 1)
|
Oh my friends I hear you sing
|
The Lord¡¯s my shepherd really what a song to sing
|
Why bring me flowers when you know that I can¡¯t smell a thing?
|
For the folks I leave behind
|
I¡¯m in heaven well imagine my surprise
|
I¡¯m really flattered that you came here to remember
|
And look I made the news again
|
In Requiem, with all my friends
|
|
(Verse)
|
There is no shame here, I feel no loss
|
The pawn and king both in the same box
|
And no one famous
|
Please don¡¯t panic
|
It looks so tragic
|
All switching seats on the Titanic
|
I¡¯m sad to go
|
Hope you enjoy the show
|
|
(Chorus 2)
|
Oh my friends I hear you say
|
A lot of lovely things about me here today
|
I¡¯m glad you didn¡¯t let the truth get in the way
|
To all my friends I leave behind
|
They put a spread on so let¡¯s all go back to mine
|
I really love it that you came here to remember
|
And look we made the news at ten
|
In Requiem with all my friends
|
|
(Bridge)
|
This dyin¡¯ ain¡¯t much of a living no no
|
Will we want what we¡¯re given heaven knows
|
|
(Chorus 1)
|
Oh my friends I hear you sing
|
The Lord¡¯s my shepherd really what a song to sing
|
Why bring me flowers when you know that I can¡¯t smell a thing?
|
For the folks I leave behind
|
I¡¯m in heaven well imagine my surprise
|
I¡¯m really flattered that you came here to remember
|
And look I made the news again
|
In Requiem, with all my friends
|
|
With all my friends
|
With all my friends
|
With all my friends
|
