Eulogy for Me
words and music by buzzy

we're gathered here today to say
goodbye to me your long lost friend
and though i left you suddenly
i left you all free to pretend
that being here's as good as being there
when i was still alive
now here's your cue - it's time to cry
come on show me that you love me
come on show me that you care
come on show me what you owe me
come on show me that you were always there

6 feet below by and by -
i choke on your flowers
6 days ahead of your lies -
one day to bury me

it makes my heart so happy that you
made it here to say goodbye
i guess it shouldn't matter much
that to get you here i had to die
but there's no time for regrets
there's no time for spite
although i know you know i have the right

come on show me that i mattered
come on show me you're a friend
come on show me that you'll miss me
kneel and kiss me and send me on my way

6 feet below by and by -
i choke on your flowers
6 days ahead of your lies -
one day to bury me

at one time when i was still living
at one time i was looking for you
at one time i banged my head against the wall
i couldn't handle life at all
and i couldn't find you
at one time i should have known better
at one time your friendship was assumed
if you were trying to fool me
your deception was mastered
because you were a bastard
and i didn't have a clue

goodbye - so long, i hope that you'll miss me
you were my friend and we'll meet again
and when we do i'll kick your ass
all over heaven

repeat
