Shriekback - Burying the Bunny lyrics

Congratulations on your January bride She was delightful and your threnody was stunning The money fizzing and the gashes on your side - a revelation But we shoulda seen it coming Ok... alright... down at the cemetery Burying the bunny, ok don't fight Let's get it over with, burying the bunny The implications of the terrifying signs Are devastating but I wouldn't really worry Life in the buzzard house, the blizzard in the spine It gets you nowhere, baby - nowhere in a hurry Ok... alright... down at the cemetery Burying the bunny, ok don't fight Can be quite operatic, burying the bunny She still looks so fluffy lying there wearing her grandmother's earrings A gardenia in her hair There ain't no question she was dead when she arrived You can't be sentimental - you're just glad that you survived This benediction isn't something I designed (It was a while ago - before I felt so sunny) It's all ridiculous - to that I am resigned And that intensity is very, very funny Ok... alright... down at the cemetery Burying the bunny, ok don't fight Can be quite operatic, burying the bunny Bury the bunny but it rises again Bury the bunny but it rises again Bury the bunny but it rises again Bury the bunny but it rises again
