lyrics

It’s my unfortunate honour to welcome you to
The Dead Fathers Club
One day he was eating his breakfast
The next he was not

You feel lost
and you’re friends are all saying
If there’s anything I can do
If there’s anything I can

Well you’re part of a club now friend
You're with us, we understand
When to call, when to shut up

We share stories, drink til it’s light
Laugh til you’re not afraid of the night
Stare it down
It won’t be long til you’re ok
In a not really ok kinda way

It was a Thursday in July when I joined
The Dead Fathers Club
You couldn’t find a better dad
Though he made me so no one’s perfect

Whether yours was a hero or a villain
He did the best he could
And you can’t refuse an invitation sent from
The Dead Fathers Club

So when you’re ironing his shirts at 3am
For no reason you can explain

If there’s anything I can do
If there’s anything I can do
If there’s anything I can

Well you’re part of a club now friend
Let it out, we understand
When to call, when to shut up

We share stories, drink til it’s light
Laugh til we’re not afraid of the night
So stick around
Cos in the end you’ll be ok
In an actually ok kinda way

You’re in the Dead Fathers Club

So we talk about the cheery ones, the serious ones
The ones we hope to be

If there’s anything I can do
If there’s anything I can do
I’ll break down your door

Cos you’re part of the club now friend
You and me here til the end
And then our kids
Will learn when to call, when to shut up

They'll share stories, drink til it’s light
Laugh til they're not afraid of the night
Stick around
So in the end they'll be ok
In an actually ok kinda way

You’re in The Dead Fathers Club
Dead Fathers Club
