lyrics

  i don’t like the cemetery
one might think that’s odd for me to say
after all, i fancy myself as your biggest fan

that’s the place it culminated
in a glass-walled chapel in the sun
so many people, they couldn’t fit
and i went numb

  that’s where the music stopped
and things got brutally honest
as we put you in a hole covered in dirt
it started to get hot 
i didn’t want to be there anymore
because you weren’t  

i don’t like the cemetery
honestly, it’s hard for me to say
and it feels like wasted breath
when they don’t understand

  i would rather go see mary
bleach my hair, go to a shitty bar 
bring everyone outside and look up at the stars

 that week your heart had stopped
and so i drove in procession
backed by 40 other cars behind the hearse
it started to get hot 
i felt it as my heels started to sink into the earth
 i didn’t want to be there anymore

it isn’t so peaceful
it isn’t all that restful

60s garage/indie rock band, superb tunes. "Charades" nods its head to 1966 Beatles and is all the better for it. No duff tracks. agutterfan
