Let us take the kids to the graveyard
Let them see what's feeding the stems
Tell them try to be as quiet as they are
Try and think of death as your friend

And we will be good (yea yea, yea yea)
For as long as you like (yea yea, yea yea)
We will dance past dawn (yea yea, yea yea)
In a crazed delight (hey, hey hey)

Well we'll mow our lawn
By the day's first light
I need sleep no more
Dream sweet goodnight

I can hear the reveling bass drum
I can hear it put to a vote
Til they've overtaken what's chased us
Well we will be drinking from a leak in our boat

And we will be good (yea yea, yea yea)
For as long as you like (yea yea, yea yea)
We will dance past dawn (yea yea, yea yea)
In a crazed delight (hey, hey hey)

Well we'll mow our lawn
By the day's first light
I need sleep no more
Dream sweet goodnight
Well we'll mow our lawn
By the day's first light
I need sleep no more
Dream sweet goodnight
