"Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
To say 'Goodbye'
To that girl in the coffin over there"

(Make a wish, blow a kiss, baby
Leave me crying)
(Gather dirt and weeds for her)
(So hard, so hard)
(Gather dirt and weeds for her)
(So hard, so hard)

What will they say
About me when I die?
Assuming that they're still alive

"Such a diva," they all agreed
Will they feel the need to lie about me?

Here lies a star
In death she is free and flying
Let us take a breath, make a wish, blow a kiss
Here lies a star
As fierce as the teeth of a lion
Dandelion, dandelion, dandelion

(Gather dirt and weeds for her)
(Gather dirt and weeds for her)

It comes for everyone
So why should I lose sleep about it?
Anyway, anyway

They got me all dressed up no where to go
But in this box, locked up, safe for ages

And as they make a slow retreat
With the planting now complete
Knocking dirt off of their feet
Everybody's happy just to hear a...

Here lies a star
In death she is free and flying
Let us take a breath, make a wish, blow a kiss
Here lies a star
As fierce as the teeth of a lion
Dandelion, dandelion, dandelion

(Gather dirt and weeds for her)
(Gather dirt and weeds for her)

Here lies a star
In death she is free and flying
Let us take a breath, make a wish, blow a kiss
Here lies a star
As fierce as the teeth of a lion
Dandelion, dandelion, dandelion

(Gather dirt and weeds for her)
