The Lonely Death Cleaning Company (Reg Mombassa) - This song is based on a newspaper article I saw about a cleaning company in Japan that specialised in cleaning up the mess left by the rotting bodies of people who have died a lonely death. A lonely death implies no one knows or cares that a person has died so their bodies lie untended often for months or years. A somewhat horrifying end product of the loneliness and isolation that many people fall into.

Lyrics

The Lonely Death Cleaning Company
The lonely death cleaning company
Came along to clean up the mess
Left in my tiny flat  After my lonely death
Brown stains on the couch and carpet
From my undiscovered corpse
Hamburger bags and crumpled up cups
Ashtrays full of cigarette butts
I did slowly but surely slip  Into a state of self-neglect   Nowhere to go and no one to see  No interesting hobbies no close family The lonely death cleaning company  Came along to clean up the mess  Left in my tiny flat  After my lonely death  Eleanor Rigby probably had  A slightly better life than me  At least she owned a home  And she went to church  And that would provide some company  I was a contract systems engineer I wore a grey shirt had short grey hair
Ordinary spectacles and comfortable shoes
I had little to gain next to nothing to lose
The lonely death cleaning company  Came along to clean up the mess  Left in my tiny flat  After my lonely death
