Dead Man's Party (1988 Boingo Alive Version) Lyrics

I'm all dressed up with nowhere to go
Walkin' with a dead man over my shoulderWaiting for an invitation to arrive
Goin' to a party where no one's still aliveI was struck by lighting
Walkin' down the street
I was hit by something last night in my sleep
It's a dead man's party
Who could ask for more
Everybody's comin', leave your body at the door
Leave your body and soul at the door . . .
(Don't run away it's only me)All dressed up with nowhere to go
Walkin' with a dead man
Waitin' for an invitation to arrive
With a dead man . . . Dead Man . . .Got my best suit and my tie
Shiny silver dollar on either eye
I hear the chauffeur comin' to the door
Says there's room for maybe just one more . . .I was struck by lighting
Walkin' down the street
I was hit by something last night in my sleep

It's a dead man's party
Who could ask for more
Everybody's comin', leave your body at the door
Leave your body and soul at the door . . .
(Don't run away it's only me)Don't run away it's only me
Don't be afraid of what you can't see
Don't run away it's only me . . .
