I wish you'd known me when I was alive, I was a funny fellow The crowd would hoot and holler for more I wore a drunks red nose for applause, oh yes I was a comical priest With a joke for the flock and a hand up your fleece Drooling the drink and the lipstick and greasepaint Down the cardboard front of my dirty dog collarNow I'm dead, now I'm dead, now I'm dead, now I'm dead And I'm goin' on to meet my reward I was scared, I was scared, I was scared, I was scared He might have never heard God's comicSo there he was on a water-bed, drinking a cola of a mystery brand Readin' an airport novelette Listening to Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Requiem" He said, before it had really begun, "I prefer the one about my son I've been wading through all this unbelievable junk And wondering if I should have given the world to the monkeys"Now I'm dead, now I'm dead, now I'm dead, now I'm dead And I'm goin' on to meet my reward I was scared, I was scared, I was scared, I was scared He might have never heard God's comicI'm goin' to take a little trip, down paradise's endless shores They say that travel broadens the mind Till you can't get your head out of doorsI'm sittin' here on the top of the world, I hang around in the longest night Until each beast has gone to bed And then I say, "God bless" and put out the lightWhile you lie in the dark, afraid to breathe And you beg and you promise, you bargain and you plead Sometimes you confuse me with Santa Claus It's the big white beard I suppose I'm going up to the pole, where you folks die of cold I might be gone for a while if you need meNow I'm dead, now I'm dead, now I'm dead, now I'm dead You're all going on to meet your reward Are you scared? Are you scared? Are you scared? Are you scared? You might have never heard, but God's comic
