Casket Salesman Lyrics


I fell in love with a casket salesman.
I don’t know who he is or where he came from.
He wraps me in blue velvet for slumber sessions
But I can’t sleep and I can’t speak.
He sold my soul to the devil in exchange for a hot air balloon. But I don’t care. I don’t care. I don’t care.
Cuz, baby, when I look at you,
I don’t care what you say or do
to me. I believe.
You’re the one I’m dreaming of.
Baby, this is graveyard love.
Can’t you see? You’re killing me.
With you is where I wanna be.
Baby, won’t you bury me?
Please, my casket salesman.
We tap-dance on tombstones until the sun awakens.
I got my owl eyes open just in case he’s a-fakin’

He throws away my love like it’s a paper aero-plane.
Fly away. Fly away.
He traded in my broomstick for a lousy magic carpet ride.
But I don’t care. I don’t care. I don’t care.
Cuz, baby, when I look at you,
I don’t care what you say or do
to me. I believe.
You’re the one I’m dreaming of.
Baby, this is graveyard love.
Can’t you see? You’re killing me.
With you is where I wanna be.
Baby, won’t you bury me?
Please, my casket salesman.
So, who are you my casket salesman?
We’ve got all the time in the world to find out.
Wake me on the other side.
Baby, with you I’d like to kill some time.
So, who are you my casket salesman?
We’ve got all the time in the world to find out.
Wake me on the other side.
Baby, with you I’d like to kill some time.
Baby, with you I’d like to kill some time.
Bury me beside you and we’ll kill some time.
Bury me beside you and I’ll make you mine.
