A thrilling musical from Ryan Scott Oliver and Hunter Foster Jasper in Deadland The Musical - Living Dead Lyrics
[Spoken] [GRETCHEN] Alright bucko, I’ll take you to all the hot spots, but don't be surprised when you find your friend if she’s having too good a time to leave, ‘cause I’m telling you this city is unplugged like life support.
[Sung] Excuse this grotesque act of reveling It’s just it kills me why you’ve come.
[CITIZENS] Ooh, it kills me! Ooh, it just kills me! [CITIZENS & GRETCHEN] Kills me why you’ve come!
[GRETCHEN] There’s no looking twice Deadland’s paradise Not the kind of place to save someone from
Makes no difference how you fed the worms It’s a scream once you arrive.
[CITIZENS] You’ll be screaming, ooh, you’ll be screaming [GRETCHEN] Scream if you’re not alive! [CITIZENS] Ooh!
[GRETCHEN] Once you [CITIZENS & GRETCHEN] Give your ghost [GRETCHEN] We all give a toast [CITIZENS] To Jasper! [GRETCHEN] Join in our angelic jive! [CITIZENS] Join in our angelic La la la la la la la la la Join in our angelic jive!
[GRETCHEN] Look, we’ll writhe around the town ‘Cause your friend may still be found ‘Cause she’s got nothin’ left but her soul and a bag Now, she’s living dead (Dead, Dead) Since her coil’s sprung, and her bucket’s been kickin’ She’s got nothin’ to lose now her time’s finished tickin’ Living
[CITIZENS & GRETCHEN] Da-da-da-dead, dead [GRETCHEN] Living dead.’
[CITIZENS] Dead (Dead dead dead) Dead (Dead dead dead)
[GRETCHEN] Carve a flat line through your miseries And don’t be fooled by all the grey
[CITIZENS] Don’t be fooled, don’tcha be fooled [GRETCHEN] It’s a scary awesome stay [CITIZENS] It’s a scary stay
[GRETCHEN] [CITIZENS] There’s no splitting hairs Hoo-hoo la, All your life’s despairs Hoo-hoo la! Will at last fast pass away Last fast pass away! La la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la
[GRETCHEN] It’s just a roll around this grave (Ooh)
[GRETCHEN & THE STIFFS] Where your friend is yours to save ‘cause she’s got nothin’ left
[THE STIFFS (VARIOUSLY)] But her soul and a bag Now, she’s living dead (Now she’s living dead!) Since her coil’s sprung And her bucket’s been kickin’ but She’s got nothin’ to lose now her time’s finished tickin’ Living
[GRETCHEN] Da-da-da-dead [CITIZENS & GRETCHEN] Da-da-da-dead [CITIZENS] Living dead
[Spoken] [VOICE] Welcome to the club Helheim Stage, Osiris!
[Sung] [OSIRIS] And there’s a pulse that beats When you’re no longer breathin’ [CLUBBERS] People living dead Ooh, Living dead Got her daisies pushed For the farm that she’s buyin’ Farm that she’s buyin' ‘cause you got nothin’ but time But time When you’ve no time for dyin’ No time for dyin' Living dead! Da-da-da-dead, dead Living dead!
[Spoken] [JASPER] I have a missing person. Has anyone seen an Agnes Fairchild?
[Sung] [GRETCHEN] And he hopes despite despair
[Spoken] [JASPER] Agnes? Excuse me, but have you seen an Agnes Fairchild?
[Sung] [GRETCHEN] But it’s him who needs a prayer ‘Cause he’s got nothin’ left but his soul and a map Walking with the dead He’s so cool, he’s so tough, he’d bet his life on tomorrow But doesn’t he know life is nothing but sorrow? Living Forget living Who needs living? Yeah who needs living When you’re living Dead?
[CITIZENS] [ONE CITIZEN] [ANOTHER] She’s got nothin’ left Сan’t lose But her soul and a bag. Nothin’ left Nothin’, no you Now, she’s living dead. But her soul and a bag. Can’t lose Nothin’ left Nothin’, no you But her soul and a bag. Since her coil’s sprung, Nothin’ left Сan’t lose And her bucket’s still kickin’ But her soul and a bag. Nothin’. She’s got nothin’ to lose Now her time’s finished tickin’
[ALL] And there’s a pulse that beats When you’re no longer breathin’ People living dead. Got our daisies pushed For the farm that she’s buyin’ ‘Cause you got nothin’ but time Now you’ve no time for dyin’ Living dead! Living dead! Living
[GRETCHEN] [CITIZENS] Dead, dead, dead, dead It’s the day, Dead, dead, dead, dead It’s the night, Dead, dead, dead, dead It’s the dawn Dead, dead, dead, dead Of the
[ALL] Dead!
