Analysis of They died younger than me
I like eating bacon and charcuterie
Smoke cigars and drink 100 proof liquor
Just remembered they died younger than me
Not worried about dying any quicker
Don't preach about living healthy
Not worried how I'm going to die
Whether I'm poor or wealthy
I'll never stop eating a french fry
