lyrics

Business casual
High heels and a pants suit
Laying in an open casket
you’ve got the world looking down on you
and you look So fantastic
Your skin is flawless and your lips are rouge
In your Open casket

They will watch you
when you’re falling
And you’re gaining
Giving words to your decay

Post a message from
The box inside your office
That you’re happy
And you’re ok

Business is good
Family is great
Life is looking merry looking gay

Business casual
High heels and a pants suit
Laying in an open casket
you’ve got the world looking down on you
and you look So fantastic
on satin pillow shades of blue on blue
In your Open casket

They see you slipping
See ya giving See ya gripping
Read you like you
Were a charade

Take the phone call
Change the status
Leave the message
That you’re happy
with your fillet

dinner was good
family is great
I can’t be happier today

Climb the hill and get the mail
Take a pen and break the seal
It’s a notable affair
And it’s asking that you wear

Business casual
High heels and a pants suit
Laying in an open casket
you’ve got the world looking down on you
and you look So fantastic
Your skin is flawless and your lips are rouge
In your Open casket
