Another wake, another time, a premature goodbye I've watched you go and I've seen you pass I always knew that it wouldn't last Together now we mourn the loss and remember all the fun We'll drink the beer and we'll hang out where death took another son So all for one and one for all, do we ever wonder why? Though the reason's clear This friend so dear was taken before his time So may this round be on the corpse of a dead man With a toast that tells of the love you never shared So as we dance on the grave of the misbehaved Raise your glass! Sing the praise of a fallen soul Now many bow their heads for this man they know so well With solemn thoughts they'll drink and drug for a resurrection (Facing death we fear no danger) While mothers shed their tears through a vail of desperation These fiends of a vicious breed raise holy hell So may this round be on the corpse of a dead man With a toast that tells of the love you never shared So as we dance on the grave of the misbehaved Raise your glass! Sing the praise of a fallen soul How many times can fate be changed The dice be rolled is there no path of least resistance for the bold (It's never sought and rarely taken) Shocked and dismayed how it stole his life When this grateful course of action takes it toll So may this round be on the corpse of a dead man With a toast that tells of the love you never shared So as we dance on the grave of the misbehaved Raise your glass! Sing the praise of a fallen soul So may this round be on the corpse of a dead man With a toast that tells of the love you never shared So as we dance on the grave of the misbehaved Raise your glass! Sing the praise of a fallen soul Now let's all gather round in our costume suit and tie Telling how this soul was A source of inspiration (Love him now, he lives no longer) But you never tell the tales of the times you turned your back On this friend who never found his grateful path So may this round be on the corpse of a dead man With a toast that tells of the love you never shared So as we dance on the grave of the misbehaved Raise your glass! And sing the praise of a fallen soul
