Dead Man Walking
The demon queen of high school has decreed it
She says Monday 8am I'll be deleted
They'll hunt me down in study hall
Stuff and mount me on a wall
30 hours to live - how shall I spend them?
I don't have to stay and die like cattle
I could change my name and ride up to Seattle
But I don't own a motorbike
Wait - here's an option that I like
Spend these 30 hours getting freaky
Yeah! I need it hard
I'm a dead girl walking
I'm in your yard
I'm a dead girl walking
Before they punch my clock
I'm snapping off your window lock
Got no time to knock - I'm a dead girl walking
J.D: Veronica? What are you doing in my room?
Shhh. Sorry but I really had to wake you
See I decided I must ride you till I break you
Cause Heather says I gots to go
You're my last meal on death row
Shut your mouth and lose them tighty-whities
C'mon! Tonight I'm yours
I'm your dead girl walking
Get on all fours
Kiss this dead girl walking
Let's go you know the drill
I'm hot and pissed and on the pill
Bow down to the will
Of a dead girl walking
And you know, you know, you know
It's cause you're beautiful
You say you're numb inside
But I can't agree
So the world's unfair
Keep it locked out there
In here it's beautiful
Let's make this beautiful
JD: (spoken) That works for me
YEAAAAAHHH
Full steam ahead
Take this dead girl walking
(How'd you find my address?)
Let's break the bed
Rock this dead girl walking
(I think we tore my mattress)
No sleep tonight for you
Better chug that Mountain Dew
(Okay okay)
Get your ass in gear
Make this whole town disappear
(Okay okay)
Slap me, pull my hair, touch me there
There, There
No more talking
Love this dead girl walking
(Woah woah. Hey hey. Yeah yeah)
Love this dead girl walking
(Woah woah. Hey hey. Wait wait)
Love this dead girl
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Ow!
YEAH
