FUNERAL CAKE Lyrics

Ah, a new arrival

We've been waiting for you

Here, take a seat anywhere you'd like

The show's about to begin

Catch me

Throwing a party in Tartarus

Call me Gatsby

Get everybody to be a part of this

(Ooh)

Abandon your body and be anonymous

(Who?)

Imagine a mosh pit of gods and ghouls

Agnostic fool, a fence sitter

Hit him with a bit of truth when he cops a tomb

We've got an orc, a gnome, a zombie too

And they be gobblin' goblin gabagool

Do the limbo limbo

Legs akimbo

And let's get down with a buried bimbo

The ladies in Hades are underrated, I swear

Hear the fans cheer

When the band blares a fanfare

But wait

(What?)

There's more

(Nah)

Than the music and the food

And the haunted whores

(Word?)

Cerberus with the guest list

Taking names like

1, 2, 3, 4

Hey, hey

Life's just a play

And curtain call could be a day away

Close the casket, hear me say

Let me get some funeral cake

Hey, hey

Life's just a play

And curtain call could be a day away

Close the casket, hear me say

Let me get some funeral cake

Bacchanal in the necropolis

We're gonna party with a post-mortem populace

You've gotta pop the top of your sarcophagus

And rock out with a cockatrice

A marvelous mix of eclectic freaks

Rejecting sleep, never rest in peace

Celebrate your death day with ecstasy

Now we're cutting the cake

So come and get your piece

Yeah, I

Think back to my time above

I was stressed and depressed and deprived of love

And the critics always said I never tried enough

In hindsight, I wish that my hide was tough

But down here

It don't matter where you're from

You can hide, you can pray, you can try to run

But the game be the same on the day it's done, like

4, 3, 2, 1

Hey, hey

Life's just a play

And curtain call could be a day away

Close the casket, hear me say

Let me get some funeral cake

Hey, hey

Life's just a play

And curtain call could be a day away

Close the casket, hear me say

Let me get some funeral cake

Alright, alright

Yeah, come on, get in line

You'll all get your slice eventually

Alright, alright

What?

No, only one slice

You only get one slice

Heaven or hell, baby, let's go

Hey, hey

Life's just a play

And curtain call could be a day away

Close the casket, hear me say

Let me get some funeral cake

Hey, hey

Life's just a play

And curtain call could be a day away

Close the casket, hear me say

Let me get some funeral cake

Ladies and gentlemen of purgatory

It's the time you've all been waiting for

Step right up and grab a slice, don't be shy

You won't know the flavor 'til you try it

Come taste the pastry people are dying to ingest

The best of the best

The creme de la creme

Your one and only funeral cake
