Bury Me In Yellow

March 12, 2008

FINALLY!
I've put a melody to some of my lyrics XD
Here's the song:

Bury me in yellow and throw a big parade
Hand out cotton candy and relive the last decade
I want to see no one crying as I head into the sky
All I want is laughter that shoots up 10 miles high

Funerals are celebrations
So why must we all cry?
Let’s live the way of the Africans
And sing them to the sky.
Funerals are celebrations
So why must we all cry?
Let’s live the way of the Africans
And sing them to the sky

Bury me in orange and throw a tidy ball
Get those funny men on stilts standing 8 feet tall
I want to see no one crying as I fly into the sky
All I want is laughter that meets me 10 miles high

Funerals are celebrations
So why must we all cry?
Let’s live the life of the Africans
And dance them to the sky
Funerals are celebrations
So why must we all cry?
Let’s live the life of the Africans
And dance them to the sky

Bury me in taffeta pink and throw a fantastic party
Hand out gifts and snacks and love eat a meal so hearty
That everyone is too busy smiling to cry me to the sky
All I want is laughter that nudges me 10 miles high

Funerals are celebrations
We must never cry
Let’s dress up like the Africans
And dance them to the sky
Funerals are celebrations
Who said we should cry?
Let’s party like the Africans
and sing them to the sky.
