[Verse 1]
There was a funeral last week
A procession down the street
People acted like the circus came to town
The choir sang so loud
When the casket hit the ground
That the tiny bell that rang was all but drowned
[Refrain]
She's buried alive!
Buried alive!
[Verse 2]
A little child stood by the grave
And was told that it was brave
It’s not right to lose one's mother while so young
The child was wondering still
That if mother was so ill
Then who pulled on the string, so the bell rung?
[Refrain]
She's buried alive!
Buried alive!
[Chorus]
Come, let’s go outside and play
Pretend we ran away
I know a secret place
In the garden by the maze
They keep the curtains closed
And we are never told
And no one wants to say
"Will they let our mother stay?!"
