Some think a fancy funeral will be worth every cent

But every dime or nickel is money better spent

Better spent on groceries or covering the bills

Instead of little luxuries and unnecessary frills

Lovely yellow daffodils and lacy pillow fringe

Pretty little angels for everyone to see

Lily of the valley and long black limousines

It's three or four months' salaries just to pay for all those things

(Solo)

So don't buy a fancy funeral, it's not worth it in the end

Goodbyes can still be beautiful without the money that you spend

There's no amount of riches that will bring back what you've lost

To satisfy your wishes, no way to justify the cost
