Joni Mitchell - Funeral (Rap) lyrics

"..led an enormous band." Swede: "Oh, But I know he's very lucky too, because when Mingus dies there's gonna be the same funeral they had for Duke Ellington... in a big church and the whole country's going to say, wow, he was so far out, you know what i mean?" Charles: "No man, no big church! I'm going to be buried man - I got my sh** all figured out!" Swede: "You're going to get a big funeral - you're famous!" Charles: "Vedanta Society, India, I'm going to be buried in India!" Swede: "I know, but you're going to get a big funeral in this country, and they'll play your music for two days" Charles: "Who's going to do that?" Swede: "It's far out isn't it, y'know what I mean?" Charles: "...You want me to hurry up, man" Swede: "No I don't want you to hurry up, but in the future, I know you're going to get a beautiful funeral - I can see it!" Charles: "But I got it all planned, man!" Swede: "...You're going to be here many more years." Charles: "You know the Vedanta Society in India.. Yuga?" Swede: "Yeah" Charles: "Well I'm going to be buried by that church" Swede: "Yeah?" Charles: "So they gotta find another place to do it, that's all." Swede: "...Plenty of time to go. You have another fifty years... you're lucky!" Charles: "Uh, Duke lived to be 77 years old right?" Swede: "Right!" Charles: "I'm gonna cut him!" Swede: "Coltrane was very strong, you know..." Charles: "I'm gonna cut Duke!"
