Hallelujah The Hills - You Better Hope You (Die Before Me) lyrics

The phone line is broken The tapes are all erased Someone's at the door You know his wares have all been laced You better hope you die before me If you take it as a compliment You're out of your tree The horses are all ready And they know as well as me That you better hope you die before me Everybody knows you climb a ladder so well Impressive demonstrations of your speech and your spell But you better hope you die before me So dress me up in wires I'll plug into the feed Of blasted out basement shows Bursting at the seams You better hope you die before me The house is infested with With pests of every kind But at least they have the courtesy To stay out of my mind You're broken, alone, down, and undreamed You can bang on every wind chime Or light a torch for me Or magnify your tiny soul With a microscope from me You better hope you die before me
