so that I can feel the rain?

Muriel Stonewall, 1903–1954
she lost both of her babies in the Second Great War
now, you should never have to watch as your only children are lowered in the ground
I mean, never have to bury your own babies

could you make it shallow
so that I can feel the rain?
gravedigger

Ring around the rosey
pocketful of posies
ashes to ashes
we all fall down

Gravedigger, when you dig my grave
could you make it shallow
so that I can feel the rain?
oh, gravedigger

Little Mikey Carson, '67–'75
he rode his bike like the devil until the day he died
when he grows up he wants to be Mr. Vertigo on the flying trapeze
oh, 1940–1992

could you make it shallow
so that I can feel the rain?
oh, gravedigger, when you dig my grave
could you make it shallow
so that I can feel the rain, I can feel the rain, I can feel the rain?
gravedigger, when you dig my grave
could you make it shallow
so that I can feel the rain?
