DEAD MEN DON’T CRY

I used to be a handsome man In days of old when dragons roamed the land And all the ladies in the fiefdom Wished to marry me I used to dine with Kings and Queens And wore fine coats of Oriental silk While jesters wheeled around me Juggling swords of fire And then one day I caught the plague and died I should have gone to Heaven I didn’t even go to Hell I’m doomed to stalk the nether world I’d weep but I’m not going to Ah, dead men don’t cry Ah, dead men don’t cry Cos we haven’t got any eyes My only friends are wasted ghouls But they don't really like me, I admit I don't fit in - I'm too morose They say I moan too much The really cruel ghosts laugh at me And stick ethereal twos up in my face They whisper insults as I pass “Oh no, not him - not again” They'd pin a "Kick me" note on me And kick me in the backside if they could Those nasty bullies Ooh, I could murder them all But I can’t, cos they're dead So am I, but so what? I’ll kill them anyway Ah, dead men don’t cry Ah, dead men don’t cry Cos we haven’t got any… Eyes or feet, no ticker beat I can’t even walk down the street Because I do not have corporeal form No nose, no neck, I’m just a wreck I’d kill myself, but flipping heck I’m already a spectre, so how come? How I wish that I could hold you I don’t know you, but I want to I’m not a pervert, I’m just cold But even if I was a pervert There’s no need to fear me Cos I haven’t any hands with which to hold Oh God! What’s the point? Ah, dead men don’t cry Cos we haven’t got any eyes Ah, dead men don’t cry Cos we haven’t got any eyes Ah, dead men don’t cry The maggots have eaten our eyes Ah, dead men don’t cry Cos we haven’t got any eyes We don’t have anything
