[GRETCHEN, spoken]
Alright, bucko. I'll take you to all the hot spots; but don't be surprised when we find your friend, if she's having too good a time to leave. Because I am telling you, this city is unplugged like life support!
[GRETCHEN]
Excuse this grotesque act of reveling.
It just, it kills me, why you've come!
[STIFFS]
Ooh, it kills me! Ooh, it just kills me!
[GRETCHEN & STIFFS]
It kills me, why you've come!
[GRETCHEN]
There's no lookin' twice!
Deadland's paradise!
Not the kinda place to save someone from.
[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]
[GRETCHEN]
Makes no difference, how ya fed the worms.
It's a scream once you arrive.
[STIFFS]
You'll be screamin'!
Oooh, you'll be screamin'!
[GRETCHEN]
Scream if you're not alive!
[GRETCHEN & STIFFS]
Ooh!
[GRETCHEN]
Once you-
[GRETCHEN & STIFFS]
Give your ghost-
[GRETCHEN]
We'll all give a toast-
[STIFFS]
To Jasper!
[GRETCHEN]
Join in our angelic jive!
[STIFFS]
Join in our angelic-
La, la, la, la,
La, la-la, la, la!
[GRETCHEN & STIFFS]
Join in our angelic jive!
[GRETCHEN]
Look we'll writhe around the town,
'Cause your friend may still be found!
'Cause she's got nothin' left, but her soul and a bag.
Now she's... livin' dead!
Since her coil's sprung and her bucket's been kickin'.
She's got nothin' to lose, now her time's finished tickin'
Livin'-
[GRETCHEN & STIFFS}
Da-da-da-dead, de-e-ead! Dead, dead!
[STIFFS]
Dead, dead, dead, dead
Dead, dead, dead, dead.
[GRETCHEN]
Carve a flat line through your miseries,
And don't be fooled by all the gray.
[STIFFS]
Don't be fooled!
Don't'cha be fooled!
[GRETCHEN]
It's a scary-awesome stay!
[STIFFS]
It's a scary stay!
[GRETCHEN]
There's no splitting hairs,
All your life's despairs
Will at last pass fast away!
[GRETCHEN & STIFFS]
La, la, la, la,
La, la-la, la, la!
[GRETCHEN]
It's just a roll around this grave-
[STIFFS]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh!
[GRETCHEN]
Where your friend is yours to save!
[GRETCHEN & STIFFS]
'Cause she's got nothin' left-
[STIFF 1]
But her soul and a bag.
[STIFF 2]
Now's she's living dead!
[STIFFS]
Now she's living dead.
[STIFF 3]
Since her coil's sprung-
[STIFF 4]
And her bucket's been kickin'-
[STIFFS 4 & 2]
But she's got nothin' to lose,
Now her time's finished tickin', livin'-
[GRETCHEN]
Da-da-da-dead.
[GRETCHEN & STIFFS]
Da-da-da-de-ea-ea-ea-ea-ead!
[VOICE]
Welcome to the club Hellheim Stage Osiris!
[OSIRIS]
And there's a pulse that beats
When you're no longer breathin'.
Oh, livin' dead!
Got 'er daisies pushed-
[OSIRIS & STIFFS]
For the farm that she's buyin',
'Cause you've got nothin' but time, and you've no time for dyin'!
Da-da-da-dead, oh, livin' dead!
[JASPER, spoken]
I have a missing person. Has anyone seen an Agnes Fairchild?
[GRETCHEN]
He hopes despite despair...
[JASPER, spoken]
Agnes?
Excuse me, but have you seen an Agnes Fairchild?
[GRETCHEN]
But it's him who needs a prayer.
'Cause he's got nothin' left, but a soul and a map.
Walkin' with the dead.
He's so cool, he's so tough, he'd bet his life on tomorrow.
Doesn't he know life is nothin' but sorrow?
Livin'...
Forget livin'...
Who needs livin'...?
Yeah, who needs livin', when you're living dead?
[STIFFS]
She's got nothin' left, but her soul and a bag.
And now she's... living dead.
Since her coil's sprung, and her bucket's been kickin',
She's got nothin' to lose,
Now her time's finished tickin'!
[GRETCHEN & STIFFS]
And there's a pulse that beats when you're no longer breathin'
We call, livin' dead!
Got our daisies pushed, for the farm that we're buyin'!
'Cause we've got nothin' but time,
Now we've no time for dyin'!
Livin'
Dead!
Living dead!
[GRETCHEN]
Living-
[STIFFS]
Dead, dead, dead, dead.
Dead, dead, dead, dead.
Dead, dead, dead, dead.
Dead, dead, dead, dead.
Dead, dead, dead, dead.
[GRETCHEN]
It's the day,
It's the night,
It's the dawn,
Of the-
[GRETCHEN & STIFFS]
Dead!
