[Chorus: The Band Perry]

If I die young, bury me in satin

Lay me down on a bed of roses

Sink me in the river at dawn

Send me away with the words of a love song

If I die young, bury me in satin

Lay me down on a bed of roses

Sink me in the river at dawn (You are now listening to a Sombatts Production)

Send me away with the words of a love song


[Verse 1: Denace]

So Mike he wakes up, his taste buds from moms pancakes

He's late for work, it's eight, but wait, yesterday was his birthday

You know how that goes, he drank a little too much, had fun

Blew a few blunts so he decided to call in late for work, he'll be in at lunch

His boss said it's fine, wasn't mad at all

Mike was a great person, in fact, he had it all

Charm, charisma, a man always standing tall

Even took a taxi home from all the alcohol, huh, he was responsible

He made the impossible look possible

He had the same job for 20 years at the same hospital

Today's the first day of spring, he's looking out the porch window, he can hear the birds sing

He got a smile on his face, takes a deep breath and thats when the motherfucking phone rings

His mom's in the hospital, in critical condition

He drops the phone and throws some clothes on, I can't express how he's feeling

He dashes to his car screaming: "God, please help"

Jumps in the ride, rides off, forgets to vasten his seatbelt

He's flipping out, screaming: "I gotta be dreaming"

She's too young to be leaving

Presses on the gas, go ahead speed demon

Too much traffic, so he's swerving in the lanes

Passed a red light, times slows down

That's when another car hits his side and Mike goes down


[Chorus: The Band Perry]

If I die young, bury me in satin

Lay me down on a bed of roses

Sink me in the river at dawn

Send me away with the words of a love song

If I die young, bury me in satin

Lay me down on a bed of roses

Sink me in the river at dawn

Send me away with the words of a love song


[Verse 2: Denace]

Crystal wakes up from a long night, she's feeling alright

Looks around, only thing that she's missing is a love life

As much as she puts up a front, she's dying inside

Always smiles and cracks jokes but she's crying inside

So back to the story at hand, she's twenty-three looking for a glorious man

Did I mention? She has a little boy but I think she's lost

'cause the guy that she talks to

Don't want nothing to do with her cause of her child, so she falls into depression, awesome

Not cool and now her attitude is nuts too

Like: "Who are you dude? I don't trust you, get out of my face, fuck you"

A lot of anger pent up, she used to have inner beauty

Now she's in her booty, and barely shows an inner cutie

She drinks herself to sleep after work, who woulda thought that laughter hurts?

To her, it kills her after every slurp

Tonight she thinks why the hell is she on this worthless earth so she decides to do something stupid

She sneaks in her parents' room and takes the gun, so she can use it

Like teach her ex a lesson for being so abusive

Now let me remind you, she's been drinking like a psychotic abused chick

Headed to the door and her child is sitting on the couch

Looks at her and says: "Mama, where's Daddy? I miss him"

"I'll be back honey, I'll be sure to kiss him"


[Chorus: The Band Perry]

If I die young, bury me in satin

Lay me down on a bed of roses

Sink me in the river at dawn

Send me away with the words of a love song

If I die young, bury me in satin

Lay me down on a bed of roses

Sink me in the river at dawn

Send me away with the words of a love song

If I die young, bury me in satin

Lay me down on a bed of roses

Sink me in the river at dawn

Send me away with the words of a love song

If I die young, bury me in satin

Lay me down on a bed of roses

[Skit: Denace & Crystal]

*Knocking*

Yeah, who is it?

It's me, open up the door, it's raining

What, what do you want?

Just open up the door, hurry up, I gotta talk to you

Okay but you've got five minutes, then you gotta go

Hey!

Crystal, what is that?

Huh, I fucking loved you!

No, no, no!

I'm so sorry baby, I can't take this anymore (*Shots*)


[Chorus: The Band Perry]

If I die young, bury me in satin

Lay me down on a bed of roses

Sink me in the river at dawn

Send me away with the words of a love song

If I die young, bury me in satin

Lay me down on a bed of roses

Sink me in the river at dawn

Send me away with the words of a love song
