AWhen relationships are in the pits and nothing's going Eright,
I'll take a trip to the graveyard and I'll pick out a Asite,
A fresh new grave a corpse I crave, I'll dig her up Dtonight,
She won't scream or cuss or Araise a fuss and Ewe won't ever Afight.
DNow I know the chances were so slim for Eyou and I to Adate,
DBut I thank god for mortality, now Eyou can be my Amate,
DI know that you've been dead a while I Ehonestly don't Amind,
DCause you still have that tender smile, you've Ealways been so kind!
ACold and wet and dirty, you're Elooking mighty purty,
But I F#mjust don't underDstand,
Why a Adead girl's gotta be, the Eone true love for me,
I'm a Dcorpse grindin' Am - Ea - An!
Be Adead for me, my Ebaby. Be dead for me, my Ababy.
Be dead for me, my Dbaby. Oh, Ababy, 'til Edeath do we Astart!
DI'll dress you in that lingerie that I Ebought for myAself,
DI'll paint you in the makeup that's been Esittin' on my Ashelf,
DYou and I will have a ball I Eswear to God it's Atrue,
D'Cause baby you were meant for me and EI was meant for you!
ACold and wet and dirty, you're Elooking mighty purty,
But I F#mjust don't underDstand,
Why a Adead girl's gotta be, the Eone true love for me,
I'm a Dcorpse grindin' Am - Ea - An!
(Same progression as "be dead for me my baby..." section)
DYour skin it has turned grey, and there's puss Eoozing out your Aeyes,
DBut it doesn't bother me, 'cause you won't Eever tell me Alies,
DRelationships I've had in the past have Emessed me up for Agood,
DBut I know you'll never leave me baby, oh Eeven if you could!
ACold and wet and dirty, you're Elooking mighty purty,
But I F#mjust don't underDstand,
Why a Adead girl's gotta be, the Eone true love for me,
I'm a Dcorpse grindin' Am - a - En!
ACold and wet and dirty, you're Elooking mighty purty,
But I F#mjust don't underDstand,
Why a Adead girl's gotta be, the Eone true love for me,
I'm a Dcorpse grindin' Am - a E- nA!
Acold and wet and dirty... (to coda)
