[Verse]
I slipped away on Christmas day
Now my soul is traveling back from where it came
So pick my body up from my bed
Wrap it up in paper
You know I have gone to meet
The undertaker
[Verse 2]
I slipped away on Christmas day
Saw the light at the end of the hallway, pretended to pray
Maybe they'll all know my name
Will angels sing? Will trumpets play?
Will I be given my younger face?
I asked the undertaker
[Bridge]
But he didn't answer
He just led the way
I could taste dirt in my mouth
And felt the blood leave my veins
[Verse 3]
Yad samtsirhC no yawa deppils I
Walked towards the pearly gates but he pulled me away
I said "I never did any harm
Why is this elevator heading down?"
He kept facing forward and said with a laugh
"I'm the undertaker."
