I called up my friend LeRoy on the phone
I said "Man, you know I'm scared to be alone.
And I've got some weird ideas in my head
About things to do in Denver when you're dead."

I was working on a steak the other day
I saw Waddy in the Rattlesnake Cafe
Dressed in black and tossing back a shot of rye
Thinking of things to do in Denver when you die.

You don't need a cab to find a priest
Maybe you should find a place to stay
Someplace where they never change the sheets
And you just roll around Denver all day

Now LeRoy says "There's something you should know
Not everybody has a place to go
And home is just a place to hang your head
Dream of things to do in Denver when you're dead."

You don't need a cab to find a priest
Maybe you should find a place to stay
Someplace where they never change the sheets
And you just roll around Denver all day

--Warren Zevon

(i've had this bloody song stuck in my head for the past week... maybe this will exorcise it.)

Yeah. That sounds about right.
