Allen Ginsberg - Father Death Blues
Work rating: High

Hey Father Death, I`m flying home
Hey poor man, you`re all alone
Hey old daddy, I know where I`m going

Father Death, Don`t cry any more
Mama`s there, underneath the floor
Brother Death, please mind the store

Old Aunty Death  Don`t hide your bones
Old Uncle Death  I hear your groans
O Sister Death  how sweet your moans

O Children Deaths go breathe your breaths
Sobbing breasts`ll ease your Deaths
Pain is gone, tears take the rest

Genius Death  your art is done
Lover Death  your body`s gone
Father Death  I`m coming home

Guru Death your words are true
Teacher Death I do thank you
For inspiring me to sing this Blues

Buddha Death, I wake with you
Dharma Death, your mind is new
Sangha Death, we`ll work it through

Suffering is what was born
Ignorance made me forlorn
Tearful truths I cannot scorn

Father Breath once more farewell
Birth you gave was no thing ill
My heart is still, as time will tell.
