Closed Casket Funeral
You're holding my hand
While you're holding my head
Underwater
Did you think I wouldn't notice?
And when the deed is done
You'll drag me to the shore
Then you'll smile
'Cause I won't be hurting anymore
You'll bury me in your backyard
Under a dying tree
And after winter, spring will come
And you'll thank me
So I'll help you bury the body
I'll help you bury the body
I'll help you bury me
We're here at the wake
And you're stuffing your face with cake
Then you smile
And you sing "Happy Birthday"
Everybody's looking at you weird
I am and I'm not even here
Such a shame
They never found the body
It'll be a Closed Casket Funeral this time
'Cause my face got frozen crying
And the tears still haven't stopped
This poor tree is gonna rot away
Because of me
'Cause I helped you bury the body
I helped you bury the body
I helped you bury me
Now I'll help you dig up the body
I'll help you dig up the body
I'll help you dig me up
And I'll help you carry the body
I'll help you carry the body
I'll help you carry me
And I'll let you get rid of the body
I'll let you get rid of the body
I'll let you get rid of me
I'll let you burn me
It's better for the tree
While you're holding my head
Underwater
Did you think I wouldn't notice?
And when the deed is done
You'll drag me to the shore
Then you'll smile
'Cause I won't be hurting anymore
You'll bury me in your backyard
Under a dying tree
And after winter, spring will come
And you'll thank me
So I'll help you bury the body
I'll help you bury the body
I'll help you bury me
We're here at the wake
And you're stuffing your face with cake
Then you smile
And you sing "Happy Birthday"
Everybody's looking at you weird
I am and I'm not even here
Such a shame
They never found the body
It'll be a Closed Casket Funeral this time
'Cause my face got frozen crying
And the tears still haven't stopped
This poor tree is gonna rot away
Because of me
'Cause I helped you bury the body
I helped you bury the body
I helped you bury me
Now I'll help you dig up the body
I'll help you dig up the body
I'll help you dig me up
And I'll help you carry the body
I'll help you carry the body
I'll help you carry me
And I'll let you get rid of the body
I'll let you get rid of the body
I'll let you get rid of me
I'll let you burn me
It's better for the tree
