Drop Dead Girl
He had a drop dead girl And he poisoned her No one in the world believed her The symbols of all evil She had a face from a fairytale And she had a grace unparalleled But no one in the world believed her So she took a spike and a needle And she drove them into his spine He stumbled back in time Singing only the psychopaths aren't stupid Boy you've got a gift you'd better fucking use it Whatever you do don't shut your eyes You'll see the pictures of a dead man's bride Of a spectre scorned well she'll demonise And she's striking you down from all sides He was a simple man If he saw a spark he ran He'd chase after it for miles Get a grip and cling for a while Until one day the spark exploded From then his self-belief eroded The final page in a drop dead thesis Told of a foolish spark lover in pieces So whatever you do don't shut your eyes You'll see the pictures of a dead man's bride Of a spectre scorned well she'll demonise And she's striking you down from all sides This is our sunset scene Nothing will come between us I've never been so sure of anything That boy is one unbalanced kid That boy is so damn talented He should be reaping the offers But he's ripping his mind to shreds Whatever you do don't shut your eyes You'll see the pictures of a dead man's bride Of a spectre scorned well she'll demonise And she's striking you down from all sides 5 interesting facts about Drop Dead Girl: 1.
