LYRICS:

He bet it all wasn’t dealt much of a hand

Thought he could bluff with the best of them
She built a wall around a castle made of sand
Hoping that the tide would not roll in

He was headed for a fall
Everybody waited for the funeral
She saw the writing on the wall
Everybody waited for the funeral

Two by two they were lead into the ark

And set to drift in search of a new land
They thought they knew but they were left out in the dark
Beaten by their own sleight of hand

He was headed for a fall
Everybody waited for the funeral
She saw the writing on the wall
Everybody waited for the funeral

And everybody stopped to see
Everybody else but me

He was headed for a fall
Everybody waited for the funeral
She was shopping at the mall
Everybody waited for the funeral
He had already left town
Everybody waited for the funeral
She was not hangin’ round

Everybody waited for the funeral
