Oingo Boingo - Dead Man's Party lyrics

rate me

I'm all dressed up with nowhere to go

Walkin' with a dead man over my shoulder

Waiting for an invitation to arrive

Goin' to a party where no one's still alive

Chorus

I was struck by lighting

Walkin' down the street

I was hit by something last night in my sleep

It's a dead man's party

Who could ask for more

Everybody's comin'leave your body at the door

Leave your body and soul at the door . . .

(don't run away it's only me)

All dressed up with nowhere to go

Walkin' with a dead man

Waitin' for an invitation to arrive

With a dead man . . . dead man . . .

Got my best suit and my tie

Shiny silver dollar on either eye

I hear the chauffeur comin' to the door

Says there's room for maybe just one more . . .

Chorus

Don't run away it's only me

Don't be afraid of what you can't see

Don't run away it's only me . . .
