I'd be thinner, I'd be taller Go clubbing in my collar With skin pale as a moth Dressed in black, I'd go creepin' When the normal folk are sleepin' If I only were a Goth With my hair up, I'd look fancy Like Siouxsie and the Banshees With silk or velvet cloth Dressed in boots, never sandals And the room would be lit with canldes If I only were a Goth Yes, I'd wanna die From the bottom of my heart impure Would I like another clove? Well, sure And after that we'll go listen to The Cure
I'd pretend to be a vampire Like in stories 'round the campfire I'd s** your bloody froth! Yes, the thing I'd be best at Is impersonating Lestat If I only were a Goth In my casket purse I'm toutin' Einsturzende Neubauten And pagan hymns to Thoth Yes, the world would be depressing Over d**h I'd be obsessing And this corpse that I'm undressing Would be s**ier, I'm guessing With my diet, I'd get scurvy And I'd worship Peter Murphy If I only were a Goth
