Petals In The Grass

Pallbearer

Pallbearer, pallbearer
Please put me down
I'm not quite ready
To be in the ground

Pallbearer, pallbearer
Will you listen to me?
How does this thing open?
Do you have the key?

Pallbearer, pallbearer
I'm oh so young
I still think there's
Some air in my lung

Pallbearer, pallbearer
It can't be my time
Don't want to be covered with dirt
Don't cover me with lime

I know this is the custom
But I don't want to die
Pallbearer, pallbearer
Why won't you reply?
