1
And with all the invitations sent the young bride went away
2
When the groom saw people passing notes not unusual, he might say
3
But where are the flowers for my baby
4
I'd even like to see her mean old mama
5
And why ain't there a funeral, if you're gonna act that way
6
I hate to tell you how he acted when the news arrived
7
He took some friends out drinking and it's lucky they survived
8
Well, he told them everything there was to tell there along the way
9
And he felt so bad when he saw the traces
10
Of old lies still on their faces
11
So why don't someone here just spike his drink
12
Why don't you do him in some old way
13
Supposed to be a funeral, it's been a bad, bad day
14
The Reverend Dr. William Grace was talking to the crowd
15
All about the sweet child's holy face
16
And the saints who sung out loud
17
And he swore the fiercest beasts
18
Could all be put to sleep the same silly way
19
And where are the flowers for the girl
20
She only knew she loved the world
21
And why ain't there one lonely horn and one sad note to play
22
Supposed to be a funeral, it's been a bad, bad day
23
Ooh, supposed to be a funeral, it's been a bad, bad day
