Isn't it grand, boys?

Look at the coffin,
With golden handles!
Isn’t it grand boys,
To be bloody well dead!
Let’s not have a sniffle,
Let’s have a bloody good cry!
And always remember, the longer you live,
The sooner you bloody will die!

Oh look at the mourners,
Bloody great hypocrites!
Isn’t it grand boys,
To be bloody well dead!
Let’s not have a sniffle,
Let’s have a bloody good cry!
And always remember, the longer you live,
The sooner you bloody will die!

Look at the flowers,
All bloody withered!
Isn’t it grand boys,
To be bloody well dead!
Let’s not have a sniffle,
Let’s have a bloody good cry!
And always remember, the longer you live,
The sooner you bloody will die!

Look at the preacher
Bloody nice fellow
Isn’t it grand boys
To be bloody well dead
Let’s not have a sniffle
Let’s have a bloody good cry
And always remember the longer you live
The sooner you bloody will die!

Look at the widow,
Bloody great female!
Isn’t it grand boys,
To be bloody well dead!
Let’s not have a sniffle,
Let’s have a bloody good cry!
And always remember, the longer you live,
The sooner you bloody will die!
