Dead Bury the Dead

Oh Lawdy Lawd
What hath God wrought?
It's a terra dentata
Where man bites dog
It's a matter of mind
Over matter, my love
You'd make a mighty fine skeleton
But who would have thunk?
On a moonless night
On a dreamless sea
You kept your head
Under lock and key
And let the dead bury the dead
Yeah, let the dead bury the dead

It's one hundred and one
Damnations
Ponder that
As you palm your skull
'Cause the bland leads the bland
And they like it like that
And they're all quite happy
Being sad and fat
Yes, pound for pound
They have put you down
But now it's time to turn the tables around
And let the dead bury the dead
Yeah, let the dead bury the dead

Oh, come with me
And you will see
A life worth living
Start a family
Along with me in the B.F.E.
Life is worth the living
When you're living it with me

And they'll never hear
They'll never hear from us again
But that's just how we'll win
Take it from me
You can take it from your best friend
Yeah, that's just how we'll win
We'll let the dead bury the dead
We'll let the dead bury the dead

La vida es un fandango
Unos van cantando
Y otros van llorando
You can mark it down
In the words of Christ
And letters of red
Every jot and tittle
This is what he said
But be careful how they twist
The words he speaks
Try inheriting the earth
When you spread the other cheek
And let the dead bury the dead
Yeah, let the dead bury the dead

Oh, come with me
And you will see
No 'bout adoubt it
Start a family
Along with me in the B.F.E.
Life is worth the living
When you're living it with me

And they'll never hear
They'll never hear from us again
But that's just how we'll win
Take it from me
You can take it from your best friend
'Cause that's just how we'll win
We'll let the dead bury the dead
We'll let the dead bury the dead

With the lies, they tell
The air befouls
Like the devil put the dinosaur bones in the ground
And let the dead bury the dead
Yeah, let the dead bury the dead
