Dance With Me letra

And when the war was over
I went dancing in the streets
With the corpse of my dead brother
To the sacrificial beat
The Boy Scouts and the Legionnaires
Came home from overseas
Singing: Glory Hallelujah!
To the swank Gestapo beat

Hallelujah, hallelujah
I've never seen in the whole of my life
An intelligent sacrifice
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Give me a reason to go on believing
And I'm ready to pay the price

I heard of a plan
In the president's mansion
High up in the sky
It called for a sacrifice
And my brother paid the price
Sent him home in a bag
The American flag
Was draped around the box
And the coffin lid was locked
And the note said: Thanks a lot

Come and dance with me
Come and dance with me
I'm home from overseas
I'm a corpse up to my knees
Celebrate the victory
Do you want to dance and hold me tight?
I'm feeling most diseased
And I need your company
Come and dance
Come and dance

Come and dance
Come and dance
I'm home from overseas
And I need your company
Celebrate the victory
Would you like to dance and hold me tight?
I'm feeling most diseased
But I'm easier to please
Come and dance
Come and dance
