lyrics
Well I wanna start wearing a dead man’s hat,
but they don’t come easy and they lie kinda flat
on a head like mine. That’s fine.
And I wanna start wearing a dead man’s jacket
‘cuz I’m running out of reasons and I think I’ll need the practice
for the funeral rhyme. That’s fine.
You can surely try to get me a dead man’s heart,
but they don’t come cheap and it ain’t too smart to spend a dime.
And I know it makes you mad when I talk about dying
but you’re wasting your breath, man, there’s no use trying
to buy me time. And I’m fine with that.
‘Cause when it’s time to get going all you gotta say is knowing me was fun.
And that’s it.
Just make sure that I’m leaving with my dead man’s heart, that I’m wearing my dead man’s hat, and my dead man’s jacket.
Well I wanna start wearing a dead man’s sweater,
you know, the kind that’s got a pocket, you can probably hold a letter
inside. That’d be fine.
And I wanna start wearing some dead man’s boots,
‘Cause the shoes I always wear will prob’ly come loose
over time. And that’s not fine.
You can surely try to get me a dead man’s watch,
but like everything a dead man owns, it’s already stopped.
And I know it makes you mad when I talk about dying
but you’re wasting your breath, man, there’s no use trying
to buy me time. And I’m fine with that.
‘Cause when it’s time to get going all you gotta say is knowing me was fun.
And that’s it.
Just make sure that I’m leaving with my dead man’s heart, that I’m wearing my dead man’s hat, and my dead man’s jacket.
Well I wanna start wearing a dead man’s hat,
‘Cause the hipsters haven’t picked it as their latest fad,
how kind. Yeah, that’s fine.
And I wanna start wearing a dead man’s jacket,
‘Cause it comes in mostly black so it’ll match the casket
sign. Yeah, that’s fine.
And if you really get me a dead man’s heart,
hope you get a good deal on the part.
Don’t waste a dime.
And I know it makes you mad when I talk about dying
but you’re wasting your breath, man, there’s no use trying
to buy me time. But I’m fine with that.
‘Cause when it’s time to get going all you gotta say is knowing me was fun.
And that’s it.
Just make sure that I’m leaving with my dead man’s heart, that I’m wearing my dead man’s hat, and my dead man’s jacket.
