Lyrics
Verse 1
You walked past his blanket
Boot prints in the cardboard rain
Eyes like empty cupboards
Name you never tried to say
He asked you for a dollar
You stared straight ahead instead
Now you’re buying flower arrangements
For a body you left unfed
Chorus
You feed ’em at the funeral
Starved ’em in the street
Toast to their “beautiful spirit”
While they begged for a bit to eat
You pass the plates
Like you’re washing the guilt away
What a send-off
For a life you let decay
Verse 2
Program on thick white paper
Printed “Gone too soon”
You cry into clean napkins
Inside a catered room
You praise their “strength and struggle”
While your mouth is full of meat
They died with nothing but hunger
Now you’re praying over sweets
Chorus
You feed ’em at the funeral
Starved ’em in the street
Toast to their “beautiful spirit”
While they begged for a bit to eat
You pass the plates
Like you’re washing the guilt away
What a send-off
For a life you let decay
Bridge
Call it kindness
Call it care
But where were you when ribs showed through
And people only stared?
All these holy speeches
All this holy bread
Funny how the love shows up
When someone’s already dead
Chorus
You feed ’em at the funeral
Starved ’em in the street
Toast to their “beautiful spirit”
While they begged for a bit to eat
You pass the plates
Like you’re washing the guilt away
What a send-off
For a life you let decay
