Verse 1

Sometimes I feel like bein' wispy
And once in a while I feel like bein' dry
But we're doomed and we're drowned by this feeling we surround
So I hope that I get old before I die

Chorus

ohhhhhhhhhhh
It's a long long rope they use to hang you soon I hope
And I wonder why this hasn't happened, why why why
And I think about the dirt that I'll be wearing for a shirt
And I hope that I get old before I die
(Sound effects)

Verse 2

Clear off the kitchen table darling
For on the kitchen table I must lie
I'm just tired for my wife just served the banquet of my life
And I hope that I get old before I die

Chorus

ohhhhhhhhhhh
It's a long long rope they use to hang you soon I hope
And I wonder why this hasn't happened, why why why
And I think about the dirt that I'll be wearing for a shirt
And I hope that I get old before I die
(Sound effects)

Chorus

ohhhhhhhhhhh
It's a long long rope they use to hang you soon I hope
And I wonder why this hasn't happened, why why why
And I think about the dirt that I'll be wearing for a shirt
And I hope that I get old before I die
