LOU REED - Goodby Mass - in a Chapel Bodily Termination lyrics

rate me

Sitting on a hard chair try to sit straight<br /> Sitting on a hard chair this moment won't wait<br /> Listening to the speakers they're talking about you<br /> Look at all the people all the people you knew<br /> <br /> Sitting with my back straight it becomes hard to hear<br /> Some people are crying it becomes hard to hear<br /> I don't think you'd have liked it you would have made a joke<br /> You would have made it easier you'd say "tomorrow I'm smoke"<br /> <br /> Sitting on a hard chair how far we have come<br /> Trying hard to listen to your friends who have come<br /> Some of them are famous and some are just like me<br /> Trying hard to listen trying hard to see<br /> <br /> Sitting in a hard chair it's over time to stand<br /> Some people are crying I turn to grab your hand<br /> It's your daughter saying thank you, you, you would have made a joke<br /> "isn't this something," you say, "tomorrow I'm smoke"<br /><br />
