Lyrics
It's gonna be a long while It's gonna be a long, long while Gonna be a long while, living A sad, sad day When he finally goes away There's gonna be a deli tray And some tears But it could be years Everybody's lining up To get a piece of grandpa's stuff If you think that living's tough Dying's worse It's gonna be a long while It's gonna be a long, long while It's gonna be a long while, living It only takes a little slip For him to fall and break his hip And then it's just a downhill trip To his grave Embalmed and shaved Sister wants the figurines Brother wants the fax machine Mother thinks it's all obscеne 'Cause she'll bе next But it's gonna be a long while It's gonna be a long, long while It's gonna be a long while, living Beneath the chatter no one heard The old man's final dying words He lay alone so pale and small And whispered, "How I hate you all" His life is not what I would call living Wait until The lawyer finally reads the will Circling above their kill Everyone will be stunned He gave it all to charity Dangled like a carrot, he Decided not to share it, we Should have known Grandpa's gonna be a long while Gonna be a long, long while Gonna be a long while, living Grandpa's gonna be long while Gonna be a long, long while It's gonna be a long while, living Long while Gonna be a long, long while, living Long while Oh he's gonna be a long, long while Gonna be a long while, living
