You don’t have to be the one 
To break my heart again 
You don’t have to pay for the tears I’ve cried 
Keep sending home the money 
I’ll be satisfied 

Play dead 
Play dead 

It is the season for you playing dead 
You give me a reason to get into bed 
I’ll put the flowers where you lay your head 
You’ll be the coward [bad word] away 

Before you leave me 
Play dead for me 
Play dead 

You want to reach me 
Play dead for me 
Play dead 

Oooohh! 
(And when you found me baby?) 
From the other side 
Keep sending home the money 
And I’ll be all right 

It is the season for you playing dead 
You give me a reason to get into bed 
I’ll put the flowers where you lay your head 
You’ll be the coward [bad word] away 

Before you leave me 
Play dead for me 

If you want to reach me 
Play dead for me 

Before you leave me 

If you want to reach me 

Play dead 
Play dead
