lyrics

The dead are waiting at the supper club
Just like when they were alive
Their names all chalked on the wall by the jukebox
they've been feeding with the coins from their eyes
From their eyes

And up in the front of the supper club
Wooden panels curve around the endless room
The dead are eating carrots from the relish tray
Cheese and crackers and incense from the tomb
From the tomb

And ohhhh, I didn't think that I'd be waiting here so soon
An Old Fashioned in my hand, standing awkward by the garbage can,
Drinking cause there's nothing else to do
Waiting in the supper club for you
Waiting in the supper club for you

Phyllis brings me over to a table
Even though I wanted to wait till you arrived
She freshens up my drink, and says, honey, come on, think about it
You can't just sit around until he dies
Take my advice

And when I first walked into the supper club
I thought I saw my grandma in the hall
But the faster that I walked, the farther away she got,
Until there was nothing left at all
Not at all

And ohhhh, in the supper club, it's always Friday night
The fish fry lasts forever, and it's always summer weather,
But without you, eternity feels odd
Sitting around and waiting here for cod
Sitting around and waiting here for cod
