but its not just patriot songs that are happy.. think of the the wonder fun song, (the singer is the desesed, singing from the spirit world)--Ain't it grand boys to be bloody well dead!

Look at the widow,
Bloody great cow,
isn't grand boys, to be bloody well dead?
Chorus
Lets not have a sniffle,
Lets have a bloody great cry
and always remember the longer you live,
the sooner you bloody well die!


Look at the preacher
Bloody great hypocrite,
Ain't it grand boys to be bloody well dead?

and so on for all the members of the wake, the keener, the undertaker, the children, etc.. and ends with with
Look at corpse, boys
Look at how lovely i lie,
isn't grand boys to be bloody well dead?

the tune is lively! and the song is cheerful! Isn't grand to be bloody well dead!
