Dancing Through the Graveyard [Common Meter]

When you're dancing through the graveyard
you'll get some angry stares.
They'll call you "disrespectful cad"
for failing to show care.

To be carefree won't offend ghosts;
they'll wish they'd done the same.
But mourners act as if, for Death,
you are the one to blame.

Why should one hold the dance within,
when it longs to be out?
Why should expressing such pure glee
be cause to point and shout?
