If youre ever in need of a plumber 
You ought to call on Graveyard Jones. 
Hes mighty handy with a plunger 
And if you listen real close you can hear confessions in the rattling of his bones.

Well Im listening

And I heard: 
I was here when people still told stories. 
It was back in the days when they still had feet. 
Forget about everything youve heard until now. 
Walking and talking were the ways that a human being got around.

Well Im walking

And I followed old Jones down to his graveyard. 
There was a shovel sticking out of the ground. 
And that voice said sonny, well you better dig 
Because the way things are looking up here there is nowhere else to go but down.

Well Im digging
Down, down, down.

And I saw that people once had bodies 
Quite different from what we have now.
Every single part had a function 
connected by an unmelodious yet harmonious effervescent sound.

Well Im singing
Singing, singing, singingfor Graveyard Jones.
