Lots of people die
Everyone in fact
But when I`m dead I`ve decided
I`ll give something back
I won`t bore the people witless
As a priest goes on and on
I`ll give them fun and merriment
Even though I`m dead and gone
I want a fancy dress funeral
Fancy dress funeral
If you don`t come as something cool
You inherit nothing, that`s the rule
Fancy dress funeral
The only way to go
You can`t take your money with you
But I don`t want to give it away
So I`ll spend it all on the funeral
My very own special day
I want a fancy dress funeral
Fancy dress funeral
If you don`t come as something cool
You inherit nothing, that`s the rule
Fancy dress funeral
The only way to go
And when I`m dead
deceased and gone and such
If a drunk would pee on my grave
I`d thank him very much
I want a fancy dress funeral
Fancy dress funeral
If you don`t come as something cool
You inherit nothing, that`s the rule
Fancy dress funeral
The only way to go
