about

My novelty song. I really wanted zombies, but metric restrictions made it last year’s monster. Live tambourine since there’s not a realistic sampled shake. Big P-bass!

lyrics

When I was younger
I had a hunger
Went to the kitchen of the lady next door
I found the liquor
It made me snicker
And pretty soon I was face down on the floor

But I’m never doing that again
No, not the next time
I learned my lesson once again
Just like the last time
You think I’d have more sense but then
I’ve had a lifetime
Of never doing that again

I went to college
To gain more knowledge
I had a roommate who said he grew his own
Said I could try it
Don’t have to buy it
And pretty soon my face had turned into stone

I started dating
Why was I waiting
I met a girl who showed the meaning of life
I loved to do it
I took right to it
And pretty soon I had acquired me a wife

We bought a mansion
It’s all the fashion
The prior owner was a vampire they said
The mausoleum
Thought I could see him
And pretty soon he changed me to the undead
