My Hero Academia: The Singing Trio

9 - If I Die Young - (The Band Perry)

Sung by Ochaco, Izuku, and Fumikage

[OCHACO]
If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
Oh-oh, Oh-ho

Lord, make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors
Oh, and life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no
Ain't even gray, but she buries her baby
The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time

[OCHACO, (with IZUKU & FUMIKAGE)]
If I die young, (bury me in satin)
(Lay me down on a bed of roses)
(Sink me in the river at dawn)
(Send me away with the words of a love song)

(The sharp knife of a short life)
Well, I've had just enough time

And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I'm as (green as the ring on my little cold finger)
(I've) never known the lovin' of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holdin' my hand
There's a boy here in town, says he'll love me forever
(Who would have thought forever could be severed by)

(The sharp knife of a short life)
Well, I've had just enough time

[OCHACO]
So put on your best boys, and I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is done
A penny for my thoughts-oh no, I'll sell 'em for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I've been singin'
Funny when you're dead, how people start listenin'

[OCHACO, (with IZUKU & FUMIKAGE)]
If I die young, (bury me in satin)
(Lay me down on a bed of roses)
(Sink me in the river at dawn)
(Send me away with the words of a love song)

Ooh, (ooh), the ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
(Gather up your tears), keep 'em in your pocket
Save 'em for a time when you're really gonna need 'em
Oh, (the sharp knife of a short life)
(Well), I've had just enough time
So put on your best boys, and I'll wear my pearls
