Remains Of The Day by Danny Elfman


Hey, give me a listen

You corpses of cheer

At least those of you

Who still got an ear

I'll tell you a story

Make a skeleton cry

Of our own jubilisciously lovely Corpse Bride

 

Die Die

We all pass away

Don't wear a frown, cause it's really ok

You might try and hide

And you might try to pray

But we all end up

The remains of the day

 

Yah, yah, yah, yah, yah

Yah, yah, yah

 

Well our girl was a beauty

Known for miles around

A mysterious stranger came into town

He was plenty good lookin'

But down on his cash

And our poor little baby

She fell hard and fast

When her daddy said no

She just couldn't cope

So our lovers came up with a plan to elope

Die Die

We all pass away

Don't wear a frown, cause it's really ok

You might try and hide

And you might try to pray

But we all end up

The remains of the day

 

Yah, yah, yah, yah, yah

Yah, yah, yah

 

Yeah, so they conjured up a plan to meet late at night

Told not a soul, kept the whole thing tight

Now her mother's wedding dress fit like a glove

We don't need much we're already in love

Except for a few things, or so I am told

That the family jewels and the satchel of gold

Then next to the graveyard by the old oak tree

On a dark foggy night at a quarter to three

She was ready to go

But where was he! ?

(And then?)

She waited

(And then?)

There in the shadows, was it the man! ?

(And then?)

Her little heart beat so loud

(And then?)

And then baby, everything... went... black

 

Now when she opened her eyes

She was dead as dust

Her jewels were missing

And her heart was bust

So she made a vow right under that tree

That she'd wait for her true love to come set her free

Always waiting for someone to ask for her hand

When out of the blue comes this groovy young man

Who vows forever to be by her side

And that's the story of our CORPSE BRIDE

 

Die Die

We all pass away

Don't wear a frown, cause it's really ok

You might try and hide

And you might try to pray

But we all end up

The remains of the day
