Whistle past the graveyard
Well I always kind of like to be surprised
I don't wanna be told what happens after I die
Death like a mystery gift wrapped up in a box
Sent from infinity and stamped with question marks
Everyone's got theirs and I've got mine
People shake it, weigh it, discuss it all the time
I tend to think there's nothing at all in it
But it's cool that I could find out any minute
And I whistle past the graveyard when I walk
'Cos I don't want to hear the corpses talk
I don't wanna hear them grumble and complain
Or discuss how much they want to eat my brain
And I always kind of like to be surprised
I don't wanna be told what happens after I die
Yeah, I don't want to hear the corpses talk
And I'll whistle past the graveyard when I walk
(Whistling)
Well if we lived forever we'd really wanna find out
But what a relief, we all die, so there's nothing to worry about
Some people say life is empty
Some say it's meaningless
Some say that isn't such a bad thing (yes it is)
Some say I'm wrong and I'll die and go to hell
But I'd be happy just knowing there was a point so it's just as well
People assume you'll suffer there
They just think you're selfish
But if I was in hell I'd be happy knowing other people were in heaven
It would make hell not so hellish
And I whistle past the graveyard when I walk
'Cos I don't want to hear the corpses talk
But I want black cats to cross my path and I pick up bad pennies
I say if there's monsters in my closet then come and get me
Yeah, but I always kind of like to be surprised
I don't wanna be told what happens after I die
No, I don't want to hear the corpses talk
And I whistle past the graveyard when I walk _________________

Love these lyrics.
"I say if there's monsters in my closet then come and get me " when i was a kid my friends told me that imustn't leave my feet out of the blanket or a monster will grab me from under your bed, i always let my feet hanging cos i wanted to know...this line reminds me of this. _________________ http://uberaffe.bandcamp.com |

Well, i've always liked to be afraid, always enjoyed a good nightmare, mostly cos i've always known there is no such things as monsters under the bed. _________________ http://uberaffe.bandcamp.com |

Lyrics are awesome, dual meanings yet alluring, causing cold shivering in spine. Rock star. Graveyard monsters are my biggest fears. _________________ Headstones Surrey |
