Funeral Tango

Oh I can see them now

Clutching a handkerchief

And blowing me a kiss

Discreetly asking how

How came he died so young

Or was he very old

Is the body still warm

Or is it already cold

All doors are open wide

They grope around inside

At my desk my drawers my trunk

There's nothing left to hide

Some love letters are there

And an old photograph

They've laid my poor soul bare

And now all they do is laughOh I can see them all

So formal and so stiff

Like a sergeant at arms

At a policeman's ball

And everybody's pushing

To be the first in line

Their hearts upon their sleeves

Like a ten cent valentine

The old women are there

Too old to give a damn

They've brought along the kids

Who don't know who I am

They're thinking about the price of my funeral bouquet

What they're thinking isn't nice

For now they'll have to payOh I see all of you

All of my phony friends

Who can't wait for it ends

Who can't wait till it's through

Oh I see all of you

You've been laughing all these years

Now all that you have left

Are a few crocodile tears

Ah you don't even know

That you're entering your hell

As you leave my cemetery

You think you're doing well

With that one who's at your side

You're as proud as you can be

Ah she's going to make you cry

But not the way you cried for meOh I can see me now

So cold and so alone

As the flowers slowly die

In my field of little bones

Oh I can see me now

I can see me at the end

Of this voyage that I'm on

Without a love without a friend

Now all this that I see

Is not what I deserve

They really have a nerve

To say these things to me

No girls just bread and water

And your money you must save

For there'll be nothing left for us

When you're dead and in your grave
