about

I worked with a couple of women some years ago. One was drop-dead gorgeous and the other... wasn't. While reflecting on this I wondered if the pretty one was just all show and if the other was the real deal. This song is how I imagined life with the eye-candy would be.

lyrics

For Better or Worse

Verse 1:
You ask me if you’re the best
I’ve ever had out of all the rest.
I say yes ‘cause if I don’t I’ll face
Very serious consequences,
But actually you know?
Sleeping with you is like sleeping with a corpse.
Chorus:
You make me feel like a necrophiliac.
You make me feel like a necrophiliac.
You make me feel like a necrophiliac.
You make me feel like a necrophiliac.
Hold a lily in your hands while you’re lying on your back ‘cause
You make me feel like a necrophiliac. Rip!
Verse 2:
Took you for better or worse, but
I Think it’s time I called for a hearse.
You’re so alive when the sun is up,
So pretty, so sweet you make my blood pump,
But when you pull the covers up to your chin
Rigor mortis just sets right in.
Chorus:
You make me feel like a necrophiliac.
You make me feel like a necrophiliac.
You make me feel like a necrophiliac.
You make me feel like a necrophiliac.
Hold a lily in your hands while you’re lying on your back ‘cause
You make me feel like a necrophiliac. Hey!...Rest in peace now!
Verse 3:
I was so thrilled the night we wed,
Couldn’t wait for the hotel to get you in bed.
When we got there we took our clothes off.
Got into bed and turned the lights off.
You didn’t move, you didn’t even moan.
I nearly dialed 911.
Chorus:
Come on! make me feel like a necrophiliac.
You make me feel like a necrophiliac.
You make me feel like a necrophiliac.
You make me feel like a necrophiliac.
Hold this lily in your hands while you’re lying on your back ‘cause
You make me feel like a necrophiliac-ac -ac. Drop dead!
You should’a married a mortician.
