Exclusive Plot

from The Luck of the Singers by Hank

lyrics

You have to visit my tombstone
You have to promise to come back every year
You have to visit my tombstone

I will be buried in an exclusive plot
I planned it and signed all the papers
It cost a year’s wages to install me there
But I’m attracted to the high life

And we will sing at the post-burial
Of all the love that we have wasted

It’s quite a distance away from the main gates
You can faintly hear the traffic
There’s a gardener who comes once a week
To throw out all the dead flowers

And we will sing at the post-burial
Of all the love that we have wasted

And there’s some famous people across the way
Which has been cordoned off by fences
So when my shabby days come to an end
At least I’ll recognise some faces

I will be buried in an exclusive plot
