Perhaps we should answer the concern described in the song. Assuming there are no spirits of the dead, you can't be aware of the worms etc. because there is no nerve activity after death. 67.160.69.105 (talk) 16:00, 27 June 2013 (UTC)
"The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out
They go in thin and they come out stout"

- "The ones that crawl in are lean and thin, the ones that crawl out are fat and stout..." Version from a Pogues-Album--89.144.204.10 (talk). — Preceding undated comment added 19:30, 2 June 2015 (UTC)
Whatever is crawling in and out (worms in most versions) is not what is playing pinochle. It should be "The bugs play pinochle on your snout." (currently Illinois, but could have learned this elsewhere) agb
