    Hasn't anybody seen me lately

    I'll tell you why

    Hasn't anybody seen me lately

    I'll tell you why

    I caught something made me so sick

    That I thought that I would die

    And I almost did too

    First me knees begin to tremble

    My heart begin to pound

    First my knees begin to tremble

    My heart begin to pound

    It was arrhythmic and out of tune

    I lost my equilibrium

    And fell face down upon the ground

    As I lay there on that cold pavement

    A tear ran down my face

    'Cause I thought I was dying

    You boys know I'm not a religious man

    But I sent a prayer out just in case

    You never know

    Lo and behold almost immediately
    I had reason to believe my prayer had
    Been heard in a very special place

    'Cause I heard this sound

    Yes

    Yes, it was harps and angels

    Harps and angels coming near

    I was to sick to roll over and see them
    But I could hear them singin ever so beautifully
    In my ear

    Then the sound began to subside
    And they sounded like background singers
    And a voice come down from the heavens above

    It was a voice full of anger from the Old Testament
    And a voice full of love from the New One
    And the street lit up like it was the middle of the day

    And I lay there quiet and listened thatto what
    Voice had to say

    He said, "You ain't ben a good man

    You ain't been a bad man

    But you've been pretty bad

    Lucky for you this ain't your time

    Someone very dear to me has made another clerical error

    And we're here on a bit of a wild goose chase
    But I want to tell you a few things
    That'll hold you in good stead when it is your time
    So you better listen close
    I'm only going to say this once

    When they lay you on the table

    Better keep your bussines clean

    'Fore they lay you on the table

    Better keep your business clean

    Don't want no back stabbing, ass grabbing
    You know exactly what I mean

    Alright girls - we're outta here"

    "Encore. Encore."

    spoke

    "Tres bien Encore"

    And off they went into the night

    Almost immediately I felt better
    And I come round to see you boys

    'Cause you know we ain't living right
    And while it was fresh
    I wanted to tell you what he told me

    He said, "When the lay you on the table

    Better keep your business clean

    When they lay you on the table

    Better keep your business clean

    Else there won't be no harps and angels
    Coming for you
    It'll be trombones, kettle drums, pitchforks,
    And tambourines."

    Sing it like they did for me one time

    Yes

    Beautiful

    Wish I spoke French

    So actually the main thing about this story is for me

    There really is an afterlife

    And I hope to see all of you there

    Let's go get a drink
