Creature Feature
The Worms Crawl In (The Hearse Song)
The coroner carves
Your family cries
The mortician fits you with glass eyes
They dress you in
Your favorite suit
And then shuffle you to your tomb
Then your carcass
Is on parade
For all to see how much you paid
Then six feet deep
Is where you’re laid
And earth sprinkled on your grave
The worms crawl in
The worms crawl out
Devour you body
From organs to grout
The insects feed
Upon your flesh
And beetles burrow inside your chest
Don’t you ever laugh
As a hearse a hearse goes by
For you will surely someday die
They’ll drain you of
Every ouncе of blood
And you will slowly melt into the mud
In the ground
You’ll dеcompose
A host for fungus, spores, and mold
Eventually
You’ll split a seam
Life is but a dream
Any moment
Along the way
If you’ve the need to run astray
Remember those
On the earthly plane
And stay put in your grave
The worms crawl in
The worms crawl out
Devour you body
From organs to grout
The insects feed
Upon your flesh
And beetles burrow inside your chest
Don’t you ever laugh
As a hearse a hearse goes by
For you will surely someday die
They’ll drain you of
Every ounce of blood
And you will slowly melt into the mud
Laid to rest
Six foot deep
Feast for worms
In your sleep
The worms crawl in
The worms crawl out
Devour you body
From organs to grout
The insects feed
Upon your flesh
And beetles burrow inside your chest
Don’t you ever laugh
As a hearse a hearse goes by
For you will surely someday die
They’ll drain you of
Every ounce of blood
And you will slowly melt into the mud
