Goths In A Graveyard

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Aurelio Voltaire & Jess-O-Lantern] In the gloom of the afternoon I leave a dark and lonely room To take a walk with a vampire girl Between the tombs (Goths in a graveyard) Arm and arm through the iron gates Where the city of the dead awaits To an ornate gothic tombstone with a view (Goths in a graveyard) [Verse 2: Aurelio Voltaire & Jess-O-Lantern] I brought my parasol A book and a voodoo doll A picnic blanket made of silk brocade I made bat sandwiches Black bread with a bloody spread I hope you'll like the spooky treats I made And we wind our way Down a path between the graves To an open patch of grass under the shade We are respectful, honorable Even though we're dressed for a funeral And we leave this place Neater than when we came They think we're animals, cannibals Ought to be chained and manacled But in many ways we're more civilized than them [Pre-Chorus: Aurelio Voltaire & Jess-O-Lantern, Both] And the normals think we're strange As we picnic by the graves But unlike them of death we're not afraid And they laugh at you and me But they miss the irony That by and by At the end of the day We all and up here anyway! [Chorus: Aurelio Voltaire & Jess-O-Lantern, Both] Goths in a graveyard Goths in a graveyard Goths in a graveyard Romantigoths and we're Lurkin' in a graveyard Goths in a graveyard Goths in a graveyard Goths in a graveyard Hey Goths, get out of that graveyard! Hell no! [Verse 3: Aurelio Voltaire & Jess-O-Lantern, Both] You can't make me From the boneyard, you can't take me When I'm down and I'm in a rut I list the things I love Like what? Weeping angels Being out in nature Taking pics of all the crypts And beautiful architecture The mausoleums They're like a death museum We spin around 'til we're in a trance 'Cause we always know when it's time to dance! [Instrumental Break] [Pre-Chorus: Aurelio Voltaire, Both] And the normals think we're strange As we picnic by the graves But unlike them of death we're not afraid And they laugh at you and me But they miss the irony That by and by At the end of the day We all and up here anyway! [Chorus: Aurelio Voltaire & Jess-O-Lantern, Both] Goths in a graveyard Goths in a graveyard Goths in a graveyard Romantigoths and we're Lurkin' in a graveyard Goths in a graveyard Goths in a graveyard Goths in a graveyard Hey Goths, get out of that graveyard! Hell no!
