"I Hope You Die First" lyrics

You always beat me to the punch line and the punch bowl at the party
Where you're first to dance and first to say goodnight
You're faster than I've ever been and I love to see you win
It doesn't even make me sad, 'cause I don't mind coming in last

I don't wanna die before you
Promise I'll be right behind
But I should be there to hold your hand
It's already been decided
I'll be here to say goodbye
Honey, I want you to understand
For better or for worse
I really hope you die first

I'll quit smoking everyday and I'll stop flying in airplanes
Yeah I'll get inventive, now I've got incentive, you make me want to change
Don't you worry about me, we'll throw you a big ol' party
And I'll light one up for you and I will see you soon

I don't wanna die before you
Promise I'll be right behind
But I should be there to hold your hand
It's already been decided
I'll be here to say goodbye
Honey I want you to understand
For better or for worse
I really hope you die first

(I really hope you die...)

I don't wanna say this, but if I don't make it
Please don't rush for me, I'll be waiting
