lyrics

It wasn’t bad I just went to sleep / In 1925 spelunker Floyd Collins was trapped in Kentucky’s sand cave / and people came to watch 10,000 a day / sat in the sand and ate their lunches / when Jesus died so the bible says / they put him in a cave / they wrapped his body / for three dark days the earth shaked shaked shaked / for three dark days the earth quaked quaked quaked / It wasn’t bad I just went to sleep/no explosion just asphyxiation / no cancer no emphysema / no little girl with one leg stuck behind her back / underground underground where the dead are buried / and if I die doing this same job / the grief and rage the terror the fascination / will it have been worth it / it wasn’t bad I just went to sleep / when Jesus died so the bible says / poor Mary cried when she found that cave empty / but Jesus smiled he tapped her on the shoulder saying / it wasn’t bad I just went to sleep / and what is underground / entombment entrapment something primal / where the dead lie carved into black rock / breathe in breath out blackrock//
