It's Gnar Gnar let out of a Jar

lyrics

When I die
No need to cry
Just take my corpse
And catapult it high
Into the air
No saying prayers
Off a boat
In my underwear
Into the ocean
With no emotion
Watch me sink
With devotion
Then pour some chum
Onto my body, son
Then enjoy
Watching the sharks come
As they feast on me
Please agree
That my life
Was a blown opportunity
Sure I had fun
But I was a bum
A disobedient slave
With low income
Sure I made art
And let some farts
But when it came to fitting in
I couldn’t even start
Cuz I wanted to be free
Couldn’t you see
But I was too busy
Being mainly lazy


Spoiled and abused
Preferring to snooze
Usually waking up
Late afternoon
Then going to the beach
And eating a peach
Scoping the babes
In the thong bikinis
I just wanted to rock
Not walk the walk
Or sit behind a computer
Staring at a clock
Didn’t play the game
I knew it was rigged, mane
That’s why I dropped out
Chit was lame
Hated chasing the carrot
And keeping up spirits
Never believed the propaganda
Acting like a parrot
Looked upon like a stranger
Attracted to danger
Conceived by mistake
Not born in a manger
Stayed incognito
Eating burritos
Killed in obscurity
It was rather neato
Loved being alone
And loved to bone
Relationship complications
Would always grow
Unless with friends
From way back when
That understood
Dancing to funkiness
Let me be forgotten
Let my corpse get rotten
Not need for a grave
No life applauding
So no funeral for this guy
I just explained why
When I die
Just erase me from your mind

Why don't you just forget about me
As you walk on by
Just delete me from your mind
As you walk on by
Don't call my name
Make sure you forget about me
