Don't spend too much on what you send me off in
I don't mind resting in a cardboard coffin
On the day when everyone is loving me
Just sing some hymns and keep on smiling
While giving speeches, there's no need for lying
On the day when everyone is loving me
Please make sure that one tramp will not get an invitation here
Charge the vultures if they try to sneak a paparazzi near
Otherwise I promise I'll be back and haunt you through the years
Just one wish, I'd likе to travel in style
I want a black Benz to bе my last ride
On the day when everyone is loving me
Fake smiles will find their way to the venue
Happily ask them to sit down with you
On the day when everyone is loving me
Don't feel sad, you can get dressed in white if that will lift your mood
Choose a picture, put it in the frame, and make sure I look good
If one more time this guy would end up making the evening news
Please throw my diary in the fireplace
Messing with feelings would be such a disgrace
On the day when everyone is loving me
I'll let you know where the light is leading
Is it the place where passed ones wait your greeting
On the day when everyone is loving me
When you've seen as much of life as four men total ever do
It's clear the one whose turn to pull the shortest straw is you
Your voice will echo on the records when your earthly shape fades out of view
On the day when everyone is loving me
