Being a grave digger isn’t all that bad
I work alone
I do my thing
I wait until the last of the grievers have left
Then I go to the grave
But before I start filling it in
I like to go down and open the coffin
And talk to the person
I like to sit and explain
About how it’s going to get really dark and quiet
But that I’ll be around
I sometimes stroke their hair
Or hold their hands
I don’t kiss them or anything
That would be weird
Then before I close up the coffin
I take all their jewelry and gold in their teeth
They don’t need it
They’re dead
Andy gives me cash for it all down at the pawn shop
So I’ve got a good thing going

  1. This is a news breaking story. That Oliver guy on TV is only encouraging this type of thievery. When I see him and his little buddy Andy again I'm going to tell them to stop. I will be seeing them next week after my trip to the orphanage where I will be collecting mementos.
