"You're The Good Things (It's Alright To Die)"

[Chorus:]
You were right I'm hangin' 'round because
Light and sound won't separate us from them
You were right I'm underground because
Sleight of hand can't separate your body
From the dirt you're standing on today

You're the good things yeah that's you, yeah that's you, yeah
You're the icing on the cake on the table at my wake
You're the extra ton of cash in my sinking life raft
You're the loud sound of fun when I'm tryin' to sleep
You're the flowers in my house when my allergies come out
You're the good things
You're the good things
You're the good things

[Chorus:]
You were right I'm hangin' 'round because
Light and sound won't separate us from them
You were right I'm underground because
Sleight of hand can't separate your body
From the dirt you're standing on today

And the help ain't short
When you're diggin' your grave, now
And the help's not short
I'll help you dig it
And the help's not short
So you're diggin' your grave, now
And the help ain't short
And I'll help you dig it
You're speakin' my language
And the help's not short
I'll help you dig it
And the help's not short
When you're diggin' your grave, now
And the help's not short
