Testo Funeral - Joni Mitchell
Testo della canzone Funeral (Joni Mitchell), tratta dall'album Mingus
Led an enormous band
Oh, but I know he's very lucky too
Because when Mingus dies
There's gonna be the same funeral they had for Duke Ellington
In a big church and the whole country's going to say
"Wow, he was so far out," you know what I mean?
No man, no big church! I'm going to be buried man
I got my shit all figured out, you know dude
Listen, you're going to get a big funeral, you're famous
Vedanta Society, India, I'm going to be buried in India
I know, but you're going to get a big funeral in this country
And they'll play your music for two days
Who gon' do that?
It's far out, isn't it? Y'know what I mean?
You want me to hurry up, man?
No I don't want you to hurry up, but in the future
I know you're going to get a beautiful funeral
I can see it
But I got it all planned, man
You're going to be here many more years
You know the Vedanta Society in India, Yuga?
Yeah
Well, I'm going to be buried by that church
Yeah?
So they gotta find another place to do it, that's all
Plenty of time to go, you have another 50 years, you're lucky
Uh, Duke lived to be 77 years old, right?
Right!
I'm gonna cut him!
Coltrane was very strong, you know
I'm gonna cut Duke
