(La la la la, la la)
No one ever had much nice to say
La la la, la la
Maybe just two weeks to live
La la la la, la la la
Oh take me from the hospital bed
Oh take me from the hospital bed
Have you heard the news that you're dead?
Did you get what you deserve?
Then your heart can't take this
You never fell in love
If like ain't just a joke
Found a complication in your heart
(La la la, la la)
I'll be here waiting, babe
So long
Oh, dead
Then why am I dead?
No one ever had much nice to say
The ending of your life
The end, and if your life won't wait
And if you get to heaven
Wouldn't it be grand? It ain't exactly what you planned
Then your heart can't take this
(La la la, la la)
And wouldn't it be great if we were dead?
Then why are we laughing?
Did you get what you deserve?
La la la la, la la
The ending of your life
If life ain't just a joke
Tongue-tied and oh so squeamish
La la la la, la la
If life ain't just a joke
Did you get what you deserve?
During this operation
Oh ************
'Cause now you've got
If life ain't just a joke
And if you get to heaven
Wouldn't it be grand to take a pistol by the hand?
(La la la la, la la)
One, two, one two three four!
Well come on
(La la la la, la la la)
La la la, la la
I'll be here wondering
I think they never liked you anyway
The end, and if your life won't wait
And if your heart stops beating
Did you get what you deserve?
(La la la la, la la la)
I think they never liked you anyway
And wouldn't it be great if we were dead?
La la la la, la la la
Then why are we laughing?
(Now you've got)
Then why are we laughing?
And in my honest observation
(Is that the most that you can give?)
Have you heard the news that you're dead?
I'll be here waiting, babe
