It Happens

                                   Say something, anything

What will they say about me after I'm dead?

That I was lazy or I did everything to get ahead?

Will they be in shock that I'm gone?

or just because I've lasted this long?

Either way

What will you say?

She's finally in a better place?

She never liked being part of the human race.

will it be said that I was selfish or kind?

That I was sane or out of my mind?

Will there be anyone to say anything at all?

soon no memory of me will anyone recall

maybe no one will even know

because no one counts on me to show

I like it that way so I can't disappoint

but mostly cause I'd rather smoke a joint

So I guess let it be said

I'm one of the grateful dead
