Don’t you ever laugh as the hearse goes by,For you may be the next one to die.They wrap you up in a big white sheetFrom your head down to your feet.They put you in a big black boxAnd cover you up with dirt and rocks.All goes well for about a week,Until your coffin begins to leak.The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out,The worms play pinochle on your scalp,They eat your eyes, they eat your nose,They eat the jelly between your toes.A big green worm with rolling eyesCrawls in your stomach and out your sides.Your stomach turns a slimy green,And pus pours out like whipping cream.You’ll spread it on a slice of bread,And this is what you eat when you are dead."
