A petal falls from a dying rose,
into the wind it blows through fate,
while down below the ground that grows,
another rose that can hardly wait

bursting with pride he was way overweight
there was hardly anybody at the funeral
besides the ones that though they might divide the estate

the preacher couldn't tell us everything that he did
but he said every kind thing that he could
mostly focusing on long ago
when he was just a boy
and his intentions had all been so good

my mother said when he was younger he was
skinnier and kinder and funnier and humble as a white pig and thin
as he got older he got fatter,
left his wife for somthing younger
sarting showing up half drunk
and makin less and less sense,
less and less sense
Aw!

A petal falls from a dying rose,
into wind it blows through fate,
while down below the ground that always grows,
another rose that can hardly wait
My uncle sam finnaly died of a heart attack
Bursting with pride way overweight

The american dream hits the early gate
