I see a graveyard's past
|
the revolution's taken back
|
whatever happened to the sons
|
no more sunshine here
|
only darkness here
|
there's no-one living in this town
|
|
cause the dead are dancing
|
the dead are dancing
|
the dead are dancing
|
in the town
|
|
mother mary comes to me
|
in this graveyard of hypocricy
|
but father renta says I'll have to pay
|
in the dead are buried lies
|
a sinful phantom cries
|
can't we just rest up on the hill
|
|
but the moonlight calls us
|
the moon, it calls us
|
up and out into the town
|
yes, the dead are dancing
|
the dead are dancing
|
the dead are dancing
|
in the town
|
|
heaven does it come to me
|
in the dreaming that my soul's been freed
|
and the torment of my madness gone away
|
and though god says he loves
|
and I, I think of love
|
i cannot change the way I am
|
|
and so the moon, it calls me
|
the lunatic calls me
|
up and out into the town
|
yes, the dead are dancing
|
the dead are dancing
|
the dead are dancing
|
in the town
|
