And oh what a feeling...!

Sånger till en begravning - del 5: John Prine - "Please Don't Bury Me" 1973


Woke up this morning.
Put on my slippers.
Walked in the kitchen and died.
And oh what a feeling!
When my soul went thru the ceiling.
And on up into heaven I did ride.
- John Prine


Får man skämta om döden...? "And oh what a feeling! when my soul went thru the ceiling". Älskar de raderna. Kanske man skulle ha på gravstenen (om man nu skulle vilja ha någon...) eller i dödsannonsen...! Varför inte?

Give my stomach to Milwaukee if they run out of beer
Put my socks in a cedar box just get em' out of here
- John Prine


Vansinnigt roligt, eller hur?
