Dance of the Dead

Living in this town where everything is quiet
Take a shortcut through the graveyard, what's the worst that could happen

My friends wanna party, this is turning to a habit
We turn the music up and our toes start a-tapping

But the moon is shining down and the earth starting to shake
I wanna feel safe, but the dead start arising

And now they're crawling out from the ground
And now there's dancing zombies all around

This is the dance of the dead, no feeling dread
They may have two left feet or a missing head
This is a dance of the dead, no feeling dread
This is a dance, so let's dance at this dance of the dead

We thought they wanted brains but they only needed beats
So we're rocking and a-rolling through these city streets

People looking through their windows and they don't know what to think
Can't tell like Halloween if it's a trick or treat

And now they're crawling out from the ground
And now there's dancing zombies all around

This is the dance of the dead, no feeling dread
They may have two left feet or a missing head
This is a dance of the dead, no feeling dread
This is a dance, so let's dance at this dance of the dead
