Funeral Parlor Lyrics

Sitting in the funeral parlor on the night before the day
I think I might have left the stove on
I think I might have left the door unlocked
I don't know if the stores will all be closed when I get out
I don't know if the chores will all be done when I get home

Sitting in the funeral parlor listening to the organ play
What if I forgot the trash cans?
What if I forgot the telephone?
I don't know if I wrote the number down in my book
I don't know if I can stand to stay here one more second

Love this song. It's got a somber yet goofy sound to it which actually fits really well with a humorous take on such a sad situation. It seems like he's doing anything just to avoid having to be at this funereal. Funny, but not ha ha funny.
