lyrics

The Undertaker

I'm the undertaker, and I lay your soul to rest
I may look a bit gloomy, yes I may look a bit sad
I may not smile a lot, but really I'm not that bad
I'm doing my job and I am the best in the land

I am the undertaker, I'll be working for you one day
You won't escape your fate, Death is coming all our ways
No reason to panic, you may still Live until you're thirty eight
But there ain't no doubt about it, I'll be working for you one day

Undertaker, Undertaker, he's gonna work for me one day

No reason to start crying, I'm told heaven looks great
Hell didn’t even seem that bad, but that’s what the bad boys said
So don’t get over excited and please stand in line
I will take all your measurements and your coffin will fit you fine

Now let me organise your funeral, you know I can organise so well
You can ask all my dead friends, though they never lived to tell
24 hours a night you can count on my availability
I work twice as hard as anyone else, that’s because I never sleep you see

Undertaker, Undertaker, he's gonna work for me one day
Undertaker, Undertaker, he's gonna work for me one day

I am the undertaker and I take pride in what I do
I do my job the best I can, I make sure there is space for you
And if you ever get unemployed and you don’t know what to do
There is always work in my line of business
I may just have a job for you

Undertaker, Undertaker, he's gonna work for me one day
Undertaker, Undertaker, he s gonna work for me one day
Undertaker, Undertaker, he's gonna work for me one day
