National Embalming School (Tune: Oh Christmas Tree)
We live for you, we die for you, National Embalming School. We do our best to give you rest, National Embalming School.
We make a coffin out of tin, Then dig a hole to put you in. We live for you, we die for you, National Embalming School.
To thee we sing, to thee we drool, National Embalming School. We stuff the corpse, we stuff the ghoul, National Embalming School.
When you feel hollow deep inside, We fill you up with formaldehyde. Our boys get hot when you get cool. National Embalming School.
(Tune: A Hunting We Will Go) Post mortem, Post mortem, Post mortem, Autopsy we must have. Post mortem, Post mortem, Post mortem, Autopsy we must have.
(Tune: The Anvil Chorus) Cut, slice, slash the body, We must have a reason. Gee how the body stinks, It must be out of season. We live for you, we die for you, National Embalming School.
