about

When you get sick in our family you get just a couple of days of sympathy, nurture and compassion, then things quickly turn dark. “You’ve been sick long enough. I’ve got shit to do. You need to either get better or die”. Empathy is something we sometimes struggle with.

When my wife and I are listening to music while doing other things like driving, cooking, cleaning, we will often change the words to songs as we sing along, replacing the lyrics with something goofy, She’s a lot more clever with that stuff than I am. One afternoon, I’m driving along by myself with the windows rolled down and the Stanley Brothers cranked up just as loud as it will go.Carter and Ralph were singing Keep a Memory. When they went into the chorus:

“When I think about you darling,
I often hang my head and cry,
Words just can't explain my feelings,
Just to know I've lived a lie”

The chorus for this song popped into my head. That’s where this song comes from.

This one’s for you honey.

lyrics

Hurry Up and Die
(Jeff Wall)

I took a vow the day we married,
one that I meant with all my heart
Our love was gonna last forever,
you and me, til death do us part

Darling when I think about you,
I just hang my head and cry,
Wondering why it is my darling,
You won’t hurry up and die

I swore that I would always love you,
even though all you do is put me down
the only way to keep our love alive dear,
is to put you six feet in the ground

Darling when I think about you,
I just hang my head and cry,
Wondering why it is my darling,
You won’t hurry up and die

But you don’t even get the sniffles,
No you’re as healthy as a horse
It looks like I might have to shoot you,
because you know it’s a sin to divorce

Darling when I think about you,
I just hang my head and cry,
Wondering why it is my darling,
You won’t hurry up and die

Why won’t you hurry up and die
