Some think a fancy funeral   Be worth every cent   For every dime and nickel   Is money better spent      Better spent on groceries   Covering the bills   Instead of little luxuries   And unnecessary frills      Lovely yellow daffodils   And lacy filigree's   Pretty little angels   For everyone to see      Lilly of the valley   And long black limousines   It's three or four month's salary   Just to pay for all those things      So don't buy a fancy funeral   It's not worth it in the end   Goodbyes can still be beautiful   With all the money that you'll spend      There's no amount of riches   Bring back what you lost   To satisfy your wishes   You'll never justify the cost
