Aunt Fidelia
Brought the rolls
With her

Green bean casserole
The widow Smith
Down the street

Dropped by a bowl
Of butter beans
Plastic cups

And silverware
Lime green
Tupperware everywhere

Pass the chicken
Pass the pie
We sure eat good

When someone dies

Funeral food

It's so good
For the soul
Funeral food

Fills you up
Down to your toes
Funeral food

Funeral food

There sits mean

Ole Uncle Bob
Gnawing on a corn
On the cob

And who's that
Walking
Through the door

I don't think
I've ever
Seen him before

Isn't it a shame
She passed away
She made

The best chocolate cake
Let's hit the line
A second time

We sure eat good
When someone dies


Everybody's here
For the feast
But come next week

Where will they be
