[Verse 1]
Come on, baby, take me to your heart
Just take a ride up in my car
I'll just refuel before we start
The day is night before we part

[Chorus]
What about the living?
What about the dead?

[Verse 2]
You think you got no place to go
And your daddy's kicked you on the road
You need a lover, not a foe
So you just relax and then unload

[Chorus]
What about the living?
What about the dead?

[Verse 3]
So you think you're foolish, playing hell
All night petrol beats you with its smell
You take a burning lamp and tell time
Slumped upon the floor where we once fell
[Chorus]
What about the living?
What about the dead?

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
You want me? No
You let me go?
You won't say "no", ah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 4]
You think you're foolish, playing hell
All night petrol beats you with its smell
You take a burning lamp and tell time
Slumped upon the floor where we once fell

[Chorus]
What about the living?
What about the dead?
