Ways to Go
Fast forward one lifetime
I'll be stinking of piss
dead in a box
shit stains down my legs
waiting for the wormos
to munch their way out of my guts
before there's anyone
to talk to
Then there's always
the barbie
a handful of dust
they assure you is yours
all mixed up
with some stranger's remains
jammed into a pot
sat on the mantel
mindlessly bored
wishing you'd gone
for the seafood option
and were waving hi
to those bottom feeders
But I'd like to drift
around the universe
to view a planet or two
I'd like to bathe
in cosmic rays
to etch my space tattoo
Wont you bury me in space
when I die
I wont need a license
'cause I was born to fly
So wont you bury me in space
when I die
if I can't live forever
just float me in the sky
wont you bury me in space
when I die
Yes, please,
bury me in space
when I die....
