Exploring themes of existential reflection and emotional struggle, this song delves into the complexities of human relationships and self-awareness. The lyrics suggest a sense of inevitability and resignation, as seen in lines like "At every occasion, I'll be ready for the funeral." This recurring motif symbolizes moments of personal reckoning or endings, both literal and metaphorical. The imagery of dead leaves on the lawn conveys a feeling of desolation and loss. Additionally, phrases such as "to know you is hard" and "to know me as hardly golden" highlight the difficulties in truly understanding oneself and others. Ultimately, the song captures a poignant meditation on life's fleeting nature and the perpetual readiness for its inevitable conclusions.
The Funeral
Lyrics
I'm comin' up only to hold you under
And comin' up only to show you're wrong
And to know you is hard, we wonder
To know you all wrong, we won
Ooh
Ooh
Really too late to call, so we wait for
Morning to wake you, is all we got
And to know me as hardly golden
Is to know me all wrong, they warn
At every occasion, I'll be ready for the funeral
At every occasion, once more, it's called the funeral
At every occasion, oh, I'm ready for the funeral
At every occasion, oh, one billion day funeral
I'm comin' up only to show you down for
And comin' up only to show you're wrong
To the outside, the dead leaves lay on the lawn
For they don't have trees to hang upon
Ooh
Ooh
At every occasion, I'll be ready for the funeral
At every occasion, once more, it's called the funeral
At every occasion, oh, I'm ready for the funeral
At every occasion, oh, one billion day funeral
