[Verse 1]

I just keep on carrying on

Slaving away all week long

Taking my money and passing it 'round

I'm just doing my best to stay above ground

Well, I'm grateful for the life I've been given

But it's about time I get back to living

[Chorus]

I wanna wake the dead, wake the dead

Go all night 'til there's nothing left

Have a little fun with no regrets

You and me, babe, let's wake the dead

[Verse 2]

It wasn't long ago we didn't care

That there was something funky blowing in the air

Was it only a dream what happened to us

It was you and me and it was peace and love

[Chorus]

Wake the dead, wake the dead

Go all night 'til there's nothing left

Have a little fun with no regrets

You and me, babe, let's wake the dead

[Bridge]

Like some kind of zombie freezing cult

I think we all better take our post

[Chorus]

Oh, whoa, whoa, wake the dead, wake the dead

Go all night 'til there's nothing left

Have a little fun with no regrets

You and me, babe, let's wake the dead

Wake the dead, wake the dead

Yeah, we'll fly so high without a net

We'll take a strange trip that we'll never forget

You and me, babe, let's wake the dead
