Erika Paul - Dead's Dead Lyrics

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...)
