Текст песни Burying The Bunny

Congratulations on your January bride
She was delightful and your threnody was stunning
The money fizzing and the gashes on your side - a revelation
But we shoulda seen it coming

Ok... alright... down at the cemetery
Burying the bunny, ok don't fight
Let's get it over with, burying the bunny

The implications of the terrifying signs
Are devastating but I wouldn't really worry
Life in the buzzard house, the blizzard in the spine
It gets you nowhere, baby - nowhere in a hurry

Ok... alright... down at the cemetery
Burying the bunny, ok don't fight
Can be quite operatic, burying the bunny

She still looks so fluffy lying there wearing her grandmother's earrings
A gardenia in her hair
There ain't no question she was dead when she arrived
You can't be sentimental - you're just glad that you survived

This benediction isn't something I designed
(It was a while ago - before I felt so sunny)
It's all ridiculous - to that I am resigned
And that intensity is very, very funny

Ok... alright... down at the cemetery
Burying the bunny, ok don't fight
Can be quite operatic, burying the bunny

Bury the bunny but it rises again
Bury the bunny but it rises again
Bury the bunny but it rises again
Bury the bunny but it rises again
