The Nihilist's Funeral

He don't want no flowers
He don't want no words
He don't want no preacher
Cause it's all absurd

He don't want no graveyard
He don't want no church
He don't want no headstone
Cause it's all absurd

Even the absurd means nothing
And nothing itself means nothing
There's nothing about nothing
And nothing ain't worth nothing

He don't want no wake
He don't want no obit blurb
He don't want no songs
Cause it's all absurd

He don't want to be mourned
He don't want to be interred
He don't want to be missed
Cause it's all absurd

Even the absurd means nothing ...

Don't quote no Nietschze
Or Soren Kierkegaard
Keep Camus to yourself
Cause it's all absurd

He don't want to live
He don't want to convert
He don't want to die
Cause it's all absurd

Even the absurd means nothing ...
