When dark forms are stirring In the sediments in your brain And your wild days are long gone Never to return again When your ghosts are all in training For the forthcoming showdown with you When you're alone in the dark When you have to When you're blue When she looks straight through you With those steely grey eyes With her black hood and scythe And her mouth so wide Excuse my ignorance Is this another transatlantic near d**h experience? Caroline says for what it's worth This won't hurt I can guarantee A brand new experience Life here don't make no sense We got a date with gravity So if you feel a beautiful shadow cross your skin And you can taste the words on the tip of her tongue Ask her 'is your surname Kevorkian by any chance' Say hello to your pop And while you're up ask the captain To either turn it round or stop Caroline says for what it's worth This won't hurt Come hear the angels sing Screw the government Every last one of them's bent And the cops kiss my shiney ring Yeah, that's what I sing So if you see her sometime Ask her to recall The eye of the hurricane Try and make some sense of it all Our night of obituaries Chewing our nails Even the past was tense On another transatlantic near d**h experience Caroline says for what it's worth This won't hurt Your future's bright Flaming orange To be precise Just another one of those days When nothing don't ever seem to go right #Spoken Your pants are too tight And your shoes pinch And everyone looks at you In a funny kind of way You know the kind of day And some poor sod just died In a distant land Shifting sand That's life That's d**h Well, at least it wasn't me I can be thankful for small mercies Before we scurry away in our Shiny black little hearses # #Howls and other sound effects (kisses and whistles) #
