Dead People (by Blind Lemming Chiffon) (tune: Short People, Randy Newman) Dead people got no reason Dead people got no reason Dead people got no reason to live. They come from New Orleans, And some witch doctor s curse. Hey, death is bad enough, But trust me: this is worse. Y know when people die You plant em in ground. You plant em six feet deep. Don t want em walkin round. NOTE: The same 4 chords repeat over and over. G Em C D Well, I don t want no dead people Don t want no dead people Don t want no dead people round here. Dead people are just same As you and I (We all gotta die.) We all act like zombies Every now and n. (When we don t get enough sleep.) Dead people got nobody Dead people got nobody Dead people got nobody to love. They smell like rotting flesh, And y wear torn-up clos. They t even make music: They just de-compose. I used to like em, But I don t no more. Hope y don t marry my sister Or move in next door. They kinda stomp around Til y fall off a cliff, Because y t see nothin And ir legs are stiff. Well, I don t want no dead people Don t want no dead people Don t want no dead people round here.
