Intro: Verse If they had to tell someone that something had happened If they found me just lying there what could they do? In case of an accident who could they notify Would it be alright if they notified you? Verse I'm an unmarried orphan whose children have scattered Estranged from my siblings close friends just a few And of those few friends I consider you closest They must contact someone Could they contact you? Bridge When they give you the bad news I'm sure you won't snicker You'll remember the good times and all we went through Then I suppose that you'll tell all the others Performing that awful task, someone has to Outro When they go through my wallet and fish out my license They'll learn my D.O.B and my eyes were blue As for my corneas, I don't care who gets them But all other organs and parts are for you
