A Funeral Party

(альбом: Death Revenge - 2017)

[Hare:]
Follow me to my humble lodging
What's mine is yours, such as it may be

[Dr. Knox:]
Enjoy the hospitality, soon you'll be cold dead anatomy

[Hare:]
Along the narrow, crooked wynd
Then through the close, this house you'll find

[Dr. Knox:]
So many honored guests to fete, always an empty bed to let

[Chorus:]
A funeral party

[Hare:]
Drink up, the hour is growing late

[Chorus:]
A funeral party

[Dr. Knox:]
The fete will end when you meet your fate

[Hare:]
Here you may rest from your journeys
And warm your bones with a dram of whiskey

[Dr. Knox:]
Drink to what's left of your health, soon you'll be another corpse to sell

[Hare:]
Intoxicated, the room starts to spin
And at that moment our night work begins

[Dr. Knox:]
Quietly asphyxiate, you see your end, but far too late

[Chorus:]
A funeral party

[Burke:]
Drink up, the hour is growing late

[Chorus:]
A funeral party

[Dr. Knox:]
S tuff the carcass in a crate

[Narrator:]
All revels must come to their end
So for the constable the tenants send
False friends meet most unpleasant ends
The corpus delicti now made evident

[Chorus:]
A funeral party

[Burke:]
Step inside and have a quaff

[Chorus:]
A funeral party

[Hare:]
Where guests soon shuffle off

[Chorus:]
A funeral party

[Narrator:]
Protests of innocence rebuffed

[Chorus:]
A funeral party

[Narrator:]
The life of the party – snuffed
