The Other - Funeral March

Текст песни

WHEN THE FINAL CURTAIN IS REALLY GONNA FALL
I THINK OF ONLY ONE PLACE THAT’S WHERE I WANNA GO
SPEND MY LAST FEW DAYS IN THE SINFUL VIEUX CARRÉ
LEAVE MY FIFTEEN CENTS AT SAINT LOUIS CEMETERY
A TIME TO LIVE AND A TIME TO END IT ALL
A TIME TO DIE AND A TIME FOR A GRAND RETURN
WHERE LOUIS MET LESTAT AND WHERE DELPHINE KILLED THE POOR
WHERE VIKTOR HAUNTS THE SWAMPS AND WHERE VOODOO MET HOODOO
A CITY FULL OF SECRETS A CITY FULL OF LUST
A LOVELY OLD PLACE TO RISE FROM THE DEAD
ASHES TO ASHES ALWAYS GOES WITH DUST TO DUST
NO LIFE IS ENDLESS AND NO LIFE WILL EVER LAST
IT’S A FUNERAL MARCH
COMING DOWN THE STREET
AND THE CHILDREN CRY
TO THE DEADLY BEAT
THERE’S A TIME FOR GRIEF AND A TIME FOR JOY
THERE ARE SKULLS AND BONES AND BRIGHT FLAMBEAUX
THERE ARE BABY DOLLS AND SKELETONS AND I KNOW I KNOW IT’S WHERE I WANNA GO
MYSTERIOUS AND DARK FROM THE CITY TO THE SWAMPS
CELEBRATE THE RITUALS ON THE RIVER BANK
WORSHIP THE OLD SERPENT LET THE SPIRIT TAKE CONTROL
LIVE THE ANCIENT ROOTS DO NOT FEAR THE JUJU-BONE
WHEN THE MARCHING BAND PASSES YOU ON DUMAINE STREET
WHEN YOU REALIZE THAT YOU KNOW ALL THAT YOU SEE
WHEN YOU’RE BEING TOLD WHO THE BAND IS PLAYING FOR
THEY PLAY FOR YOU, THEY PLAY FOR YOU, THEY PLAY FOR YOU
THERE’S A TIME TO LIVE AND A TIME TO DIE
THERE ARE MARCHES FOR YOUR FUNERAL
