Lyrics
I’m dead and dank and rotten
My arms are wrapped in cotton
My corpse loves you, let’s marry
Get smart, once — Every night at sleepy time
Get smart, twice — I hang my skin out on the line
Get smart, sing — Oh, darling, would you be, be mine
I’m in love, I think I’m in love
I’m in love, I think I’m in love
I’m in love, I think I’m in love, oh ho-ho-ho
I’m caught in a mesh of veins
My fingers and flesh and brains
My skull gives head, so let’s wed
Get smart, once — Every night when all alone
Get smart, twice — I drape my flesh around the phone
Get smart, pray — Oh, darling, would you be my own
I’m in love, I think I’m in love
I’m in love, I think I’m in love
I’m in love, I think I’m in love, oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Don’t cry, beautiful, it’s just a phase
To the father and the son and the holy ghost
I chant and I pray, I love
You know, God works in mysterious ways
To the father and the son and the holy ghost
I sing and I pray, I love
I’m soft and slightly stinking
My arms are small and shrinking
My lips kiss dirt, oh, let’s flirt
Get smart, once — Every night at half-past-one
Get smart, twice — There’s a little taste of things in come
Get smart, chant — Oh, darling, can I be your son?
I’m in love, I think I’m in love
I’m in love, I think I’m in love
I’m in love, I think I’m in love, oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Don’t scream, baby, it’s just a coma
To the father and the son and the holy ghost
I chant and I pray, I love
You go to heaven, I go to Roma
To the father and the son and the holy ghost
I sing and I pray, I love
