Sentiment and hysteria aside, here's my response:
We Never Did Care Too Much for Grandma
(Tune: Little Old Sod Shanty on the Plain
or Okie from Muskogee, as preferred)
We really never cared too much for Gramma;
We didn't like the way she'd piss and moan
But we're feeling kinda blue,
And we're half-inclined to sue,
At the disrespect they showed to Gramma's bones.
Ol' Gramma always acted like a hellion,
- Chorus:
- She was much too bad for heaven
- And much too mean for Hell.
- So where our Gramma ended up,
- No-one can really tell.
- And I'm not surprised her horny hide
- Was much too tough to burn,
- But what the hell is that in Gramma's urn?
We couldn't stand the things she'd say an' do
Though her spirit was like leather
They left her bones out in the weather,
Now she's out there causing grief for someone new.Cho.
Now we don't much care what became of Gramma;
Up-town or 'cross the tracks, it's all the same
We can't know her brand new handle
But this crematory scandal
Is a dirty downright slur on Grampa's nameCho.
We really never cared too much for Gramma;
We didn't like the way she'd piss and moan
But we're feeling kinda blue,
And we're half-inclined to sue,
At the disrespect they showed to Gramma's bones.
Regards,
A
