Don’t you ever laugh as the hearse goes by, For you may be the next to die.ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh how happy we shall beThey wrap you up in a big white sheet, From your head down to your feet.ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh how happy we shall beThey put you in a big black box, And cover you up with dirt and rocks.ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh how happy we shall be
All goes well for about a week, Then your coffin begins to leak.ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh how happy we shall beThe worms crawl in, the worms crawl out, The worms play pinochle on your snout.ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh how happy we shall beThey eat your eyes, they eat your nose, They eat the jelly between your toes.ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh how happy we shall beA big green worm with rolling eyes, Crawls in your stomach and out your eyes.ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh how happy we shall be
Your stomach turns a slimy green, And pus pours out like whipping cream.ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh how happy we shall beYou spread it on a slice of bread, And that’s what you eat when you are dead.ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh how happy we shall be
I’m not usually a fan of cars but I might make an exception for this one. Even at £40.00 a pop for the petrol just to drive around Deptford it would be so cool.
Apparently it is the only one of these Cadillac hearses in the country. I can believe it.
And to make it more fairy-tale still, it had a previous life rusting away in a Louisiana field.

bloody marvellous – although it puts me more in mind of ‘Marquee Moon’ than anything else!
