| He played the game but he failed the test
|
| But he remembers the way of her hair and the shape of her breast
|
| He’ll tell the world about it now in a traveling show
|
| Like some kind of circus
|
| Like some kind of circus
|
| Like a monkey in a zoo
|
| More dead than alive
|
| Total abandon — that far away look
|
| Where nothing seems to matter and nothing seems to cook
|
| But you know her, you love her; |
| you gotta live without her
|
| He said I can’t live without her
|
| She said too bad about that and left with the undertaker
|
| Now he just sits at the piano
|
| Singing I’ll never grow up
|
| I’ll never grow up
|
| More dead than alive
|
| He said what a babe
|
| You oughta see her
|
| I got a picture
|
| And he whipped out his wallet
|
| He got a pathetic collage photo of himself in a fashion mall
|
| Really sad — really sad
|
| More dead than alive
|
| Well I climbed up a mountain and I dug myself a grave
|
| Don’t you ever get tired telling me to behave
|
| And the wild wind well it’s my slave
|
| Takes me wherever I’d wanna go
|
| But it always blows me back again
|
| Well the wild wind it’s my friend
|
| It always blows me back again
|
| It was if my skull was bare
|
| And naked without a thought to share
|
| Till blew one night this wild wind
|
| And knocked me back alive again
|
| And if I told you this was for real
|
| That I had been living against my will
|
| Would you laugh and laugh and say
|
| He’s not being real that way
|
| More dead than alive
|
| Pulled up a coffin and I stepped in
|
| I turned on the radio and the record on the radio kept skippin, skippin
|
| I said I pulled up a coffin
|
| I pulled up a coffin
|
| I pulled up a coffin
|
| I walked up to this psychological man
|
| I said I got this problem about this coffin
|
| He said here’s some cough drops
|
| I said please don’t make such dumb jokes
|
| This is art — or is it art or is it smart
|
| Or is it just my heart
|
| More dead than alive
|
| Little girl when all my tears have dried
|
| Little girl when everything was going great
|
| Time to call up the in-crowd
|
| Undead white zombie
|
| More dead than alive
|
| Well he played that game but he failed the test
|
| Be he remembers he remembers the way of her hair and the shape of her breast
|
| And he’ll tell the world about it now in a traveling show
|
| Like some kind of circus
|
| Like some kind of circus
|
| Like some kind of circus
|
| More dead than alive |
