This Packed Funeral

Flirting with disaster... hey, Disaster!
Swooning over hope... goodnight, Hope!

Crumpled dresses and nicotine stains
Damn the consequences
And consequently damned
Arguing with exes in the bathroom
Smooching and doing dope

Walking with disaster... wait up, Disaster!
Waking up with hope... good morning, Hope!

Being more polite to strangers
Than to your oldest friends
Linger over embraces wander off before the end
Not acknowledging apologies
Distracted lies, repetitious old gossip...

People are getting in fights
People are falling in love
Dodging bullets so
Long it's the only
Skill you're sure of
Wondering, wonderment
It's not just a matter of time
Ain't none of us helpless, just hoping to influence
At this packed funeral, sing

Sing

Sing

Sing!

We never got lucky, we just picked up more booze
Picked up a few more stragglers for this tribe we choose
It's amazing you kept your figure, it's amazing you're still alive
It could have been anyone, you know I am anyone

All well dressed and behaving in front of exes spouses
You know she always had a crush on you
And I always assumed that you two...
Do the parents know about her tattoos?

People are getting in fights
People are falling apart
Dodging bullets so
Long it's the only
Skill you're sure of
Wondering, wonderment
It is not just a matter of time
Ain't none of us helpless, just hoping to influence
At this packed funeral

People are getting in fights
People are falling in love
Dodging bullets so
Long it's the only
Skill you're sure of
Wondering, wonderment
It's not just a matter of time
Ain't none of us helpless, just hoping to influence
At this packed funeral, sing

Aging punk rocker's teenage drama
Did you see who just walked in?
At this packed funeral thing
What do you do when no one recognizes you, when you walk in?
Explaining yourself to the next of kin
At this packed funeral, sing

People are getting in fights
People are falling in love
Dodging bullets so
Long it's the only
Skill you're sure of
Wonderful wonderment
It is not a matter of time (Not just a matter of time)
Ain't none of us helpless, just hoping to influence
At this packed funeral, sing
At this packed funeral, sing
At this packed funeral, sing!
