I returned a bag of groceries Accidentally taken off the shelf Before the expiration date I came back as a bag of groceries Accidentally taken off the shelf Before the date stamped on myself

Did a large procession wave their (did a) Torches as my head fell in the basket (large procession) And was everybody dancing on the casket? (dance?) Now it's over, I'm dead, and I haven't (now it's) Done anything that I want (over) Or, I'm still alive and there's nothing I want to do

Now it's over, I'm dead, and I haven't (now it's) Done anything that I want (over) Or, I'm still alive and there's nothing I want to do
