lyrics

Here I rest in an unspoilt tomb
Verily, I decay in a coffin full of maggots
Wiggly worms bore and eat me away
Recumbent, but encumbered
In a state of lascivious repose
Won’t someone covet this corpse...
Deflower my funereal rose?

(Lead: Withering heights)

Don’t be shy, I won’t bite
(Zombies are make-believe)
It’s just so lonely and quiet
Six feet deep in eternal sleep
Libidinous limbo, waiting
Purulently patiently wasting
A decomposing debutante
Who’s dead keen on dating

Come jump these bones...
Cajole and cavort in a carcass caress
Love my remains...
Dressed up to the nines in bereavement best
So many lies; they are all talk
Ne’er fondle the gone
Who’ll ruffle this husk?
Desperate and lifeless
My holes are sewn shut
Won’t someone molest this skeleton?
Not getting older, I do have all day
However, I’m anxious for a roll in the hay
I’m pretty dead, in mud lust congealed
I want to knock boots but my casket’s still sealed

A paled romance...
A moment’s silence, an awkward kiss
My rotten heart stood up again (another night in)
The waiting game...
Church bells peel in the cemetery mist
But still my virgin grave belies untrodden soil

(Lead: Ashes to ashes, lust to dust)

There’s a use by date for sins of the flesh
But someone must want at least what is left?
Time’s not been kind... emotional shell
Bathe me in life, I shan’t kiss and tell
Don’t cry for me, I’m already dead
Just dig me up and take me to bed...

(Lead: Sepulcher amour)

Bird shit on my headstone
Wilting flowers for a bloody valentine
Solitude, in memoriam
For fifty shades of putrid grey

(Lead: Blue balls in my wake)
