Dead's Dead
Words & Music by Erika Paul
From the cd entitled,
"Adolescent Drama - Six Originals From The Residency Play, 'Stackin' The Odds'"
We are the dead, we say dead is dead
We are the dead, we say dead is dead
Shuffle up those cards again
Shuffle up those cards my friend
We are the dead, we say dead is dead
We are the dead, we say dead is dead
Join us while we sit around
Waiting for the judgement
Join us while we sit around
Waiting for the judgement
We are the dead, we say dead is dead
We are the dead, we say dead is dead
Here come the worms, we are just fish food
Here come the worms, we are just fish food
We've been here so long
We're starting to grow algae
We've been here so long
We're starting to grow algae
We are the dead, we say dead is dead
We are the dead, we say dead is dead
(Repeat and fade)
Optional improvised solo sung over the top:
Dusty, crusty, full of fleas
Purgatory is for sleaze
Waiting, boredom, I'm confused
How much longer, will it seize? (etc...)
