I JUST BURIED MY SISTER
IN A PUBLIC GRAVE,
MEMBERS OF HER FAMILY REFUSED
THE ARRANGEMENTS TO BE MADE.
I JUST BURIED MY SISTER
IN HER FAVORITE DRESS,
LUCKY FOR HER A MONTH AGO
SHE HAD THE DAMNED THING PRESSED.
SISTER WAS ALMOST PSYCHIC,
WHEN IT CAME TO THINGS LIKE THIS,
SHE'D THROW HER ARMS ABOVE HER HEAD,
SHE'D CLOSE HER EYES AND PURSE HER LIPS.

I LITERALLY BURIED MY SISTER
IN THE PUBLIC PARK,
I WAITED TIL THE KIDS WERE ALL AT HOME
AND IT WAS MODERATELY DARK.
I DUG UNTIL IT PAINED MY SHOULDER,
I DUG UNTIL MY NAILS WERE BLACK,
THEN I LAID MY SISTER IN HOME MADE GRAVE
THEN I SHOVELED ALL THE DAMN DIRT BACK.
SISTER HAD NO INSURANCE,
FOR YEARS SHE WORKED FOR TIPS,
DID BETTER THAN A WHOLE LOTTA YA'LL OUT THERE,
SISTER COULD SYNC SOME LIPS!
SHE LEFT ME HER WILL AND TESTAMENT
IN A SEQUINNED DISCO BAG,
SHE NEVER HAD NO STOCKS OR BONDS,
BUT COULD SISTER COLLECT SOME DRAG!
SO NOW IT'S TIME TO READ HER WISHES,
LET HER FINAL LIST BE HEARD,
YOU CAN TRUST ME TO ADHERE
TO EVERY WORD...

"OF SOUND MIND AND BODY,
IF I EVER HAD SUCH A THING,
I HEREBY GIVE MY SISTER BACK
HER SMOKEY TOPAZ RING,
MY WARDROBE IS ELABORATE
BUT IT DOES ME NO GOOD NOW,
THAT I'VE WORKED THE CROWD
AND TAKEN MY LAST BOW.
SO SCATTER MY BARBARA BUSH PEARLS
IN THE RIVER!
GIVE MY EARRINGS TO THE POOR.
SELL MY BEADED GOWNS FOR CHARITY,
SISTER CAN'T WEAR'EM ANYMORE.
KEEP ALL MY HIGH-HEELED DANCIN' SHOES,
WHO ELSE WHERE'S THIRTEEN WIDE?
JUST WEAR MY PUMPS WITH DIGNITY AND PRIDE.
PUT MY WIGS IN THE SMITHSONIAN,
PUT MY PANTYHOSE IN THE TRASH!
THE HATS I MADE EACH EASTER
SHOULD BRING SOMEBODY IN SOME CASH.
MY JOKES WERE ALWAYS BORROWED
FROM THE PUBLIC DRAG DOMAIN",
SISTER DID HER BEST TO ENTERTAIN...

SO HERE LIES ANOTHER DEAD DRAG QUEEN
IN A GRAVE A DRAG QUEEN DUG,
IN THE MORNIN' THERE'LL BE JOGGERS,
AND AT NIGHT SOMEBODY'LL BE MUGGED!
BUT SHE'S BEEN LAID TO REST IN DIGNITY
AND THAT'S THE LAST TIME SHE'LL BE LAID,
BEHIND HER FAVORITE PARK BENCH IN THE SHADE.

SO NOW YOU DON'T SEE ME CRYIN',
NO MASCARA RUNNIN' DOWN MY FACE,
I JUST THINK ABOUT MY SISTER IN HEAVEN
LIP SYNCIN' "AMAZING GRACE",
SHE'S ENTERTAININ' ANGELS NOW
IN A BIG ASS RHINESTONE CROWN,
IN HER FAVORITE FLAWLESS,
TEAL BLUE- CRACKED ICE,
BUGLE BEADED GOWN!

SO NOW YOU DON'T SEE ME CRYIN',
