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
