There’s this song I’ve heard on the radio several times called “If I Die Young” by The Band Perry. It is probably the saddest song I’ve ever heard in my life. It’s also quite catchy and I find it getting stuck in my head all the time. Here’s the video so you can listen and get good and depressed before we continue…
Sad yet? Good. Here’s my new lyrics for the first two lines of the chorus. I have several versions. Enjoy!
“If I die young, play some heavy metal. Make it real loud, so it annoys my grandma.”
“If I die young, bury me with Playboys. Open up the pages, so I can see the boobies.”
“If I die young, stuff me like a grizzly. Build a little town, so I look like Godzilla.”
“If I die young, bury me in burlap. Dump me in a ditch – just like Law & Order!”
“If I die young and I become a zombie, shoot me in the head, it’s the only way to stop me.”
See… it’s fun… try and make some of your own!
