All Good Children Got To Die Lyrics by Daniel Johnston

2024

Okay
Now with Dale Dungeon
How'd it go?
Bum bum bum bum bum bum-
Been getting fat on my humble pie
Pretty soon I'll up and die
Don't shed a tear now, don't you cry
All good children got to die
I was in California
In the good old USA
Ever since that fateful day
I've been one step closer to my grave
Smiling at the people here
Pretty soon now I'll disappear
Hang my hat by the welcome mat
Where all the good dead children are at
Talking about my funeral
You know it's sure to come
There's some who think it'd nеver happen to them
Thеre are some that are that dumb
Satan can't stop me, he thinks he's gonna find
That I'm wearing the chains around my neck
I'm not going to heck
Sitting in the funeral casket
You can bring me a flower basket
I'll no longer need to go to church
I'll be gone from this Earth
Might not get a chance to say goodbye
So I really got to try
Don't shed a tear now, don't you cry
All good children got to die
-Wasn't too bad
