Why when we are dead
It’s the only time we can be read
Stretched out on that table
Directing all fables
That’s when the mortician
Assumes two position
Figuring what led you to lay
Was it health or dismay
Later stitch you back
Embalming fluid to now pack
You have now been read
All the reasons you’re dead
Ironic how that all could end
All the ailments you defend
To be stretch out like a doll
Now the mortician knows all
Why when we are dead
Only time we can be read
Stretched out on that table
Directing all fables
That’s when the mortician
Assumes the position
Figuring what led to lay
Was it health or dismay
All the reasons you’re dead
You have now been read
You have now been read
