Fancy Funeral

Some think a fancy funeral



Be worth every cent



For every dime and nickel



Is money better spent



Better spent on groceries



Covering the bills



Instead of little luxuries



And unnecessary frills



Lovely yellow daffodils



And lacy filigree's



Pretty little angels



For everyone to see



Lilly of the valley



And long black limousines



It's three or four month's salary



Just to pay for all those things



So don't buy a fancy funeral



It's not worth it in the end



Goodbyes can still be beautiful



With all the money that you'll spend



There's no amount of riches



Bring back what you lost



To satisfy your wishes



You'll never justify the cost
