A Thorn For Every Heart - Non-Album Songs Lyrics - Dead Man's Party lyrics

• [Originally by Oingo Boingo]
  
  All dressed up with nowhere to go
  Walking with a dead man over my shoulder
  All dressed up with nowhere to go
  Walking with a dead man over my shoulder
  
  Waiting for an invitation to arrive
  Going to a party where no one's still alive
  All dressed up with nowhere to go
  (Walking with a dead man over my shoulder)
  
  I was struck by lighting
  Walking 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 coming, leave your body at the door
  Leave your body and soul at the door
  
  Don't run away it's only me
  Don't be afraid of what you can't see
  
  Got my best suit and my tie
  Shiny silver dollar on either eye
  I hear the chauffeur coming to the door
  Says there's room for maybe just one more
  
  I was struck by lighting
  Walking 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 coming, leave your body at the door
  Leave your body and soul at the door
  
  Don't run away it's only me
  Don't be afraid of what you can't see
  
  I was struck by lighting
  Walking 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 coming, leave your body at the door
  I was struck by lighting
  Walking 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 coming, leave your body at the door
