Lyrics to When I Die
When I die
And they lay me down
I hope they drop the casket and my body rolls on out
When they scoop me up
And put me back in
I hope it's on my side, that's how I like to sleep in my bed
And oh no, don't you cry
Life was worth living, well, I did it, didn't I?
I can only get so much time
So don't focus on the wrongs I never got right
I hope it's you who's on my mind
When I die
Cut me in half
'Cause funerals cost a lot
Let my family split the bill and put me in a to-go box
So plant some flowers
On that twenty-square feet
It'll look like my album cover
That'd be pretty damn sweet
When I'm in the ground
If I hear you talking shit
I hope I get the chance to be a ghost and scare your kids
'Cause oh no, don't you cry
Life was worth living, well, I did it, didn't I?
I can only get so much time
So don't focus on the wrongs I never got right
I hope it's you who's on my mind
When I die
When I die
Oh, when I die
Oh, when I die
Oh, yeah
When I die, I'm the one that paid the price
'Cause you're moving on while I'm in the afterlife
And oh no, don't you cry
Life was worth living, well, I did it, didn't I?
I can only get so much time
So don't focus on the wrongs I never got right
If there's one thing I'm scared to leave behind
It's you laying right there by my side
When I die
Oh, when I die
When I die
Oh, when I die
And they lay me down
I hope they drop the casket and my body rolls on out
When they scoop me up
And put me back in
I hope it's on my side, that's how I like to sleep in my bed
And oh no, don't you cry
Life was worth living, well, I did it, didn't I?
I can only get so much time
So don't focus on the wrongs I never got right
I hope it's you who's on my mind
When I die
Cut me in half
'Cause funerals cost a lot
Let my family split the bill and put me in a to-go box
So plant some flowers
On that twenty-square feet
It'll look like my album cover
That'd be pretty damn sweet
When I'm in the ground
If I hear you talking shit
I hope I get the chance to be a ghost and scare your kids
'Cause oh no, don't you cry
Life was worth living, well, I did it, didn't I?
I can only get so much time
So don't focus on the wrongs I never got right
I hope it's you who's on my mind
When I die
When I die
Oh, when I die
Oh, when I die
Oh, yeah
When I die, I'm the one that paid the price
'Cause you're moving on while I'm in the afterlife
And oh no, don't you cry
Life was worth living, well, I did it, didn't I?
I can only get so much time
So don't focus on the wrongs I never got right
If there's one thing I'm scared to leave behind
It's you laying right there by my side
When I die
Oh, when I die
When I die
Oh, when I die
