"Dead Man's Party"

Oingo Boingo

released 1985

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 ones still alive

Chorus
I was struck by lighting
Walkin' down the street
I was hit by something last night in my sleep
Its a dead mans 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 its 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 its only me
Don't be afraid of what you cant see
Don't run away its only me . . .
