(Dead)acation

- For Dad -

…..Who went out the way he wanted…… …..See you in “When dead is Deader”……

When dead is dead

Some will be hung

And some will be drown

Some will be shot and never found

Some will be burned

And some will be fried

Some will be horribly electrified

Some will be poisoned

And some will be stoned

Some will be brutally striped to the bone.

Some will be stomped

And some will be bound

Some will be buried alive underground

Some will be chocked

And some will be stabbed

Some will be quartered and sliced up in labs

Some will be crushed

And some will be beaten

Some will be maimed by wild and eaten

Some will be splattered

And some will be dust

Some will mysteriously spontaneous combust

Some will be pushed

And some will be dragged

Some will be smothered with plastic bags

Some will be drugged

And some will explode

Some will be buried to their necks and mowed

But either way it’s as you’ve read

It doesn’t matter when dead is dead

As good as dead

When dead is dead As good as dead I write down words, Within my head I’ll try not to laugh Or make you cry I want so much, To sympathi’ But what good for you If I’m not I I have to write To make me my I’ll make you famous, With words I say In my book, You’ll forever stay So if I laugh, Instead of cry

It’s because I’m thinking, Of the way you die Alive you’ll stay But in my head You’re just a page away From when dead is dead
