59. Dead. They Might Be Giants

They Might Be Giants is a very strange band with very strange but catchy songs. This is a good one. To my knowledge, I never made my younger brother have to be my personal slave, but it's a good line.

I returned a bag of groceries accidently taken off the shelf before the expiration date.
I came back as a bag of groceries accidently taken off the shelf before the date stamped on myself.

Did a large procession wave their torches as my head fell in the basket, and was everybody dancing on the casket?

Now it's over I'm dead and I haven't done anything that I want
Or, I'm still alive and there's nothing I want to do.

I will never say the word "procrastinate" again; I'll never see myself in the mirror with my eyes closed.
I didn't apologize for when I was eight and I made my younger brother have to be my personal slave.

Did a large procession wave their torches as my head fell in the basket, and was everybody dancing on the casket?

Now it's over I'm dead and I haven't done anything that I want
Or, I'm still alive and there's nothing I want to do.

So I won't sit at home anymore
and you won't see my head in the window
and I won't be around ever anymore
and I'll be up there on the wall at the store.
