They Might Be Giants - Dead lyrics

Accidentally taken off the shelf

Before the expiration date

I came back as a bag of groveries

Accidentally taken off the shelf

Before the date stamped on myself

CHORUS

Did a large procession wave their

Torches as my hed fell in the basket

And was everybody dancing on the casket?

Now it's over I'm dead and I haven't

Done anything that I want

Or, I'm still alive

And there's nothing I want to do

I will never say the word

"Procrastinate" again; I'll never

See myself in the mirror with my eyes closed

I didn't apologize foor when I was eight

And I made my younger brother

Have to be my personal slave

CHORUS

So I won't sit at home anymore

And you wn't see my head in the window

And I won't be around ever anymore

And I7ll be up there on the wall at the store

I returned a bag of groceries

Accidentally taken off the shelf

Before the expiration date

I came back as a bag of groceries

Accidentally taken off the shelf

Before the date stamped on myself

CHORUS
