Billion Day Funeral (Live) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm coming up only to hold you under
I'm coming up only to show you wrong
And to know you is hard; we wonder
To know you all wrong, we won

[Pre-Chorus]
Ooooohh oooohh
Ooooohhhoohhhhooh

[Verse 2]
Really too late to call so we wait for
Morning to wake you is all we got
And to know me as hardly golden
Is to know me all wrong, they won

[Chorus]
At every occasion I'll be ready for the funeral
At every occasion once more, it's called the funeral
Every occasion, oh I'm ready for the funeral
At every occasion, oh one billion day funeral

[Verse 3]
I'm coming up only to show you down for
And coming up only to show you're wrong
To the outside, the dead leaves laid on the lawn
For they died and had trees to hang upon
[Pre-Chorus]
Oooohhhohhhhhh
Oooooohooooooh

[Chorus]
At every occasion I'll be ready for the funeral
At every occasion once more, it's called the funeral
At every occasion, oh I'm ready for the funeral
At every occasion, oh one billion day funeral

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
