While standing at the junction on 42nd street
I idly kick a pebble lying near my feet
I hear a weird noise, take a look up and down
The cause of the commotion is right there on the ground
Imagine my surprise, thought I'd left it at home, yeah
But there's no doubt about it, it's my own tombstone
I went into the shop, and bought a loaf of bread
I sank my teeth into it, thought I'd burst my head
Oh, I dashed to the dentist, "Hey, hey, I've got an awful pain" yeah
The man looks in my mouth and screams,"This boy is insane!"
Imagine my surprise, thought i'd left it at home
But there's a lump in my mouth of my own tombstone
I went in to see a movie, got the only empty seat
I tired to stretch out in it, something blocking my feet
Finally the lights came up, and I could clearly see
A slab of engraved marble,just staring up at me
Oh, imagine my surprise, oh, thought I'd left it at home
But there's no doubt i'm sitting on my own tombstone
