[Spoken: Richard Pryor]

We are gathered here today

On this sorrowful occasion

To say goodbye to the dearly departed

In other words, the nigga dead

Whether or not you can survive death

That's the ultimate test for your ass, ain't it?

So far, don't nobody we know have passed the ultimate test

Least of all this nigga laying here

'Cause this boy wasn't shit

I'm gonna tell you that right off

I saw him kicking his mama's ass over there on 47th Street

And if you think we gon' bury you with them diamonds and shit on

You got another thing coming

I'd like to introduce the boy's woman, ho, bitch

I don't know what she was

She's laying over there in the booth

Say girl, what you doing?

Well, don't sell no pussy in here

If you do, I want a cut

Shit, your fault the nigga dead
