[Verse 1]
There was a gambler and a cleaner and a puppeteer
Only the puppet could explain just what he was
All on a bus we were hoping to pass the time
Plug my piece in boys then we can drink the wine
Drink the wine, drink the wine
[Chorus 1]
Well, music, good friends, I'm not dying today
I may be 6 feet under, full of wonder
I'm not dying today, dying
Today, today
Today I'm not dying, mister
Today, today
[Verse 2]
Neil is thrilled he can claim he's mammalian
"But the bad news," he said, "Girl, you're a dandelion"
Dandelion, hey I need to think about that
Yeah, I thought about that and I said, "What the Hell?"
He said, "Nope, you are Earth bound
Blow them seeds away and maybe one will make a sound
Make a sound"
[Chorus 2]
Oh, music, good friends
I'm not dying today
I may be 6 feet under, full of thunder
I'm not dying today, dying
Today, today
Today I'm not dying, mister
Today, today
[Bridge]
So they got us go, going and coming
'Cause they make us pay if we go or stay
Is he praying that I'll pop my clogs?
If they can't prove I'm crazy
By noon I'll be pushing up them daisies
Tomorrow, with their doughnut box
They'll say, "It's sad she's brown bread"
Hey, I got my weapons
[Chorus 3]
Music, good friends
I'm not dying today
I may be 6 feet under, way down yonder
I'm not dying today, dying
Today, today
[Outro]
I'm not dying, sister
Keep your paws off my ankle straps and my mister
Dying, frying, rather have a lie-in
I am not blowing that Gabriel's trumpet
I got my own band to play today
