Lyrics
Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
To get through this thing called LIFE.
Electric word "life"
It means forever and that's a mighty long time
But I'm here to tell you, there's something else
The afterworld.
A world of never-ending happiness
You can always see the sun, day or night.
So when you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills
You know the one, Dr. Everything'll-Be-Alright
Instead of asking him how much of your time is left
Ask him how much of your mind, baby
'Cause in this life
Things are much harder than in the afterworld
In this life, you're on your own
And if de-elevator tries to bring you down
Go crazy, punch a higher floor

If you don't like
The world you're living in
Take a look around you
At least you got friends
I called my old lady
For a friendly word
She just picked up the phone
Dropped it on the floor
"Aah, aah!" is all I heard

I'm not gonna let de-elevator bring us down, oh no, let's go
Let's go crazy, let's get nuts
Let's look for the purple banana
'Til they put us in the truck
Let's go

All excited, but don't know why
Maybe it's 'cause, we're all gonna die
And when we do (when we do)
What's it all for? (what's it all for)
Better live now
Before the grim reaper comes knocking on your door
Tell me,
Are we gonna let de-elevator bring us down?
Oh, no, let's go

Go Crazy
I said, let's go (crazy)

He's coming
He's coming
Coming

Take me away

Many thanks to elynross and pipsqueaky for excellent and timely beta. And extra-special thanks to laurashapiro for coming up with this idea, thinking "I really need someone twisted to help me make this," and thinking of me. *sniff* It was a joyous collaboration and she took on all the hard tech parts so I didn't have to. Let's do it again sometime, ok? :) All feedback, comments, or concrit are welcome, either here or through email (sdwolfpup (at) gmail (dot) com).
