| Your mother is a journalist, your father is a creep |
| They make it in your bedroom when they think you’re fast asleep |
| The scenes that they’re enacting now beside your little bed |
| Are never in your consciousness but always in your head |
| Baby |
| It might sound dodgy now |
| But it sounds great when you’re dead |
| It sounds great when you’re |
| Your sister is a butterfly, your brother is a drunk |
| You gaze at him reclining in formaldehyde a trunk |
| He lives and breathes on systems that nobody can supply |
| And you’re immune to everything except the butterfly |
| Yeah |
| Baby |
| It might sound dodgy now |
| But it sounds great when you’re dead |
| It sounds great when you’re dead |
| Baby, you’re incredible, I think that you’re the most |
| I’ve searched around for everything like you from coast to coast |
| Your name engraved in diamonds written in my heart |
| We’re at our most together when we’re at our most apart |
| Baby |
| It might sound dodgy now |
| But it sounds great when you’re dead |
| Baby |
| It might sound dodgy now |
| But baby let me assure you |
| It sounds great when you’re dead |
