Lyrics

Oingo boingo - dead man's party

I'm all dressed up with nowhere to go
Walkin' with a dead man over my shoulder x2

It's only me

Waiting for an invitation to arrive
Goin' to a party where no one's still alive x2

*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)
Only me…
Only me…

All dressed up with nowhere to go
Walkin' (with a dead man)x2
Waitin' for an invitation to arrive
Walking with a dead man…dead man…dead man…

Got my best suit and my tie
Shiny silver dollar on either eye
I hear the chauffeur comin' to my 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…
It's only me…it's only me…

*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…

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

It's only me… (repeat 9 times)
