lyrics

Put your scalpels down, take a look around
At the final expression on the face
Of every body in this place
The mind that endured all the suffering is gone
But something else lingers on that I know
Best lend your books out son while you’re around
They say when someone dies, that a library burns down

Call everyone who ever loved me
Bring every shaman to jiggle above me
Bring holy chrism to rub me
Bring everyone and they might see

That the mind that endured all the suffering is gone
But something else lingers on that I know!!

Best lend my books out son while I’m around
They say when someone dies, that a library burns down

Call everyone who ever loved me
Bring every shaman to jiggle above me
Bring holy chrism to rub me
Bring everyone and they might see
