THE FUNERAL

43 4 4
                                    

This must be the wettest day of the year

inside and out

a flu bug must have scampered our way

there is sniffling all about.

A man is sleeping in his bed

in front of all these faces

he sure must have a lot of nerve

the church of all darn places.

As we go walking by his bed

he looks up and winks an eye

I wink mine back and turn away

that's sure one real strange guy.
