letra de when you’re dead (you're great) - goats don’t shave
[verse 1]
such a big crowd at the wake it’s nice to see
here comes father michael, kneel and say the rosary
“sorry for your trouble”, shake the hands of family
trays of cigarettes passed around with cups of tea
they said he had it comin’, they saw the writin’ on the wall
they said if he had only asked for help, they’d’ve given him it all
[chorus]
’cause a man lives and a man dies
i heard the gossips, the hypocrite prophets
throw dirt in his grave without blinking an eye
and the man died, no surprise
they said he’s a loser, a drunkard, a boozer
they slashed him with tongues sharp as knives
it’s true what they say
when you’re dead, you’re great
when you’re dead, you’re great
[verse 2]
remember how he used to sing, play that old guitar
remember how you sang along those late nights in the bar
everybody’ll miss him, things’ll never be the same
everybody loved him, everybody knew his name
but when he walked among them, a different song they sang
they watched the bottle bleed him and no one gave a d-mn
[chorus]
’cause a man lives and a man dies
i heard the gossips, the hypocrite prophets
throw dirt in his grave without blinking an eye
and the man died, no surprise
they said he’s a loser, a drunkard, a boozer
they slashed him with tongues sharp as knives
it’s true what they say
when you’re dead, you’re great
when you’re dead, you’re great
when you’re dead, you’re great
