Of Montreal - Old People in the Cemetery lyrics

Old people in the cemetery What must they be thinking of? Must be frightening must be scary To visit the grave of a close friend Who was the same age as you when they died There's nothing precious about Old people in the cemetery Reciting bible pa**ages Unprepared to come to terms with The fact that we're all food for worms What do they think a prayer Could make a difference now? There's nothing sadder than An old woman in the cemetery Picking leaves off of her husbands tomb Knowing that her only wish is That she will die and join him soon It's so sad to see them all just wither away There's nothing sadder then old people like that It must be hard to relate After the world of your youth Totally evaporates Old men in the cemetery Lurking like faint shadows of the dead Gazing down at mother's plot And longing to be there instead It's a dreary fate And no one should have to be As depressing as old people like that
