[MR. BUMBLE (spoken)]<br>
Liberal terms, Mr. Sowerberry...Liberal terms? Three pounds!<br>
<br>
[SOWERBERRY (spoken)]<br>
Well, as a matter of fact, I was needing a boy....<br>
<br>
[MR. BUMBLE]<br>
He's a born undertaker's mute.<br>
I can see him in his black silk suit.<br>
Following behind the funeral procession...<br>
With his features fixed in a suitable expression.<br>
There'll be horses with tall balck plumes<br>
To escort us to the family tombs,<br>
With mourners<br>
In all corners<br>
Who've been taught to week in tune.<br>
<br>
Then the coffin lined with satin.<br>
That's your funeral.<br>
<br>
[MRS. SOWERBERRY]<br>
That's your funeral.<br>
<br>
[SOWERBERRY]<br>
Large enough to wear your hat in.<br>
That's your funearl.<br>
<br>
[MRS. SOWERBERRY]<br>
That's your funeral.<br>
<br>
[SOWERBERRY]<br>
We're just here to glamourize you for that <br>
Endless sleep.<br>
<br>
[MRS. SOWERBERRY AND SOWERBERRY]<br>
You might just as well look fetching <br>
When you're six feet deep.<br>
<br>
[MRS. SOWERBERRY]<br>
At the wake we'll drink a toddy<br>
To the body beautiful.<br>
<br>
[MR. SOWERBERRY]<br>
That's your funeral.<br>
<br>
[MRS. SOWERBERRY]<br>
Not our funeral.<br>
<br>
[BOTH]<br>
That's your funeral.<br>
<br>
[SOWERBERRY]<br>
If you're fond of overeating<br>
That's your funeral.<br>
<br>
[MRS. SOWERBERRY]<br>
That's your funeral.<br>
<br>
[SOWERBERRY]<br>
Starve yourself by undereating<br>
That's your funeral.<br>
<br>
[THE FUNERAL PROCESSION]<br>
That's your funeral?<br>
<br>
[MRS. SOWERBERRY]<br>
Visualize the earth descentind on you clod by clod.<br>
You can't come back when you're buried<br>
Underneath the ...sod.<br>
<br>
[MRS. SOWERBERRY AND SOWERBERRY]<br>
We will not reduce our prices.<br>
Keep your vices usual.<br>
<br>
[SOWERBERRY]<br>
That's your funeral.<br>
<br>
[MRS. SOWERBERY]<br>
Not our funeral.<br>
<br>
[MRS. SOWERBERRY]<br>
Not our funeral.<br>
<br>
[ALL]<br>
That's your funeral.<br>
<br>
[MR. BUMBLE]<br>
I don't think this song is funny.<br>
<br>
[SOWERBERRY]<br>
That's your funeral.<br>
<br>
[MR. BUMBLE]<br>
Here's the boy, now where's the money?<br>
<br>
[SOWERBERRY]<br>
That's your funeral.<br>
<br>
[MR. BUMBLE]<br>
That's your funeral.<br>
<br>
[SOWERBERRY]<br>
We don't harbour thoughts macabre,<br>
There's no need to frown.<br>
<br>
[MRS. SOWERBERRY AND SOWEBERRY]<br>
In the end we'll either burn you up or nail you donw.<br>
We love coughs and wheezes<br>
And diseases called incurable.<br>
That's your funeral.<br>
No one else's funearl.<br>
<br>
[SOWERBERRY]<br>
That's your...<br>
<br>
[MRS. SOWEBERRY]<br>
That's your...<br>
<br>
[BOTH]<br>
Funeral!<br>
<br>
