Going to your funeral and feeling i could scream
Everything goes away
Driving down the highway through the perfect sunny dream
A perfect day for perfect pain
Look at all the people with the flowers in their hands
They put the flower on the box
That's holding all the sand that was
That was once
That was once
You
Honolulu hurricane
I knew that you were not insane
Living in the insane world
Smiling like it's no big deal
Scabby wounds that never heal
The woman was only a girl
Look at all the people with their heads down in their hands
When everything i'm feeling makes it hard to understand
That, uh,
What i need to miss
It's what i need to miss
Is you
Going to your funeral and i'm feeling like a fool
No one's gonna take the blame
Thinking about the days of hanging out behind the school
Everything goes away
The lyrics GOING TO YOUR FUNERAL, PT. 1 of EELS is also present in the album Electro-shock blues (1998)
Gli Eels sono un gruppo rock alternativo formatosi nel 1995 dal musicista e cantautore Mark Oliver Everett (conosciuto anche come Man Called E, Mr. E o semplicemente E; figlio del famoso fisico Hugh Everett III). Everett ha fondato gli Eels con il batterista Butch Norton e il bassista Tommy Walter (conosciuto anche con lo pseudonimo Abandoned Pools) quando la sua carriera solista ebbe un rallentamento. Il gruppo ha rapidamente raggiunto la fama con l'uscita del loro primo album *Beautiful Freak* nel 1996, quando una traccia dell'album, "Beloved Monster", è stata utilizzata nel film *Shrek*. Tuttavia, il loro secondo album, *Electro-Shock Blues*, è considerato il capolavoro degli Eels. Scritto durante un periodo di grande tragedia personale per Everett (la sua sorella si suicidò e sua madre aveva un cancro ai polmoni terminale), l'album esplora temi di dolore, perdita e speranza con una profondità emotiva rara. Gli Eels hanno pubblicato sei album in studio, l'ultimo dei quali è stato *Blinking Lights and Other Revelations* del 2005. Questo album è un viaggio personale nell'spiritualità e nella sanità mentale di Everett, ed è stato accolta dalla critica ma non ha avuto successo commerciale. Alcuni dei brani più rappresentativi degli Eels includono "Mr. E's Beautiful Blues", "Novocaine for the Soul", "Souljacker Part II" e "Climbing to the Moon".
