Hey, give me a listen 
You corpses of cheer 
At least those of you 
Who still got an ear 
I’ll tell you a story 
Make a skeleton cry 
Of our own jubilisciously lovely Corpse Bride 

Die Die 
We all pass away 
Don’t wear a frown, cause it’s really ok 
You might try and hide 
And you might try to pray 
But we all end up 
The remains of the day 

Yah, yah, yah, yah, yah 
Yah, yah, yah 

Well our girl was a beauty 
Known for miles around 
mysterious stranger came into town 
He was plenty good lookin’ 
But down on his cash 
And our poor little baby 
She fell hard and fast 
When her daddy said no 
She just couldn’t cope 
So our lovers came up with a plan to elope 

Die Die 
We all pass away 
Don’t wear a frown, cause it’s really ok 
You might try and hide 
And you might try to pray 
But we all end up 
The remains of the day 

Yah, yah, yah, yah, yah 
Yah, yah, yah 

Yeah, so they conjured up a plan to meet late at night 
Told not a soul, kept the whole thing tight 
Now her mother’s wedding dress fit like a glove 
We don’t need much we’re already in love 
Except for a few things, or so I am told 
That the family jewels and the satchel of gold 
Then next to the graveyard by the old oak tree 
On a dark foggy night at a quarter to three 
She was ready to go 
But where was he!? 
(And then?) 
She waited 
(And then?) 
There in the shadows, was it the man!? 
(And then?) 
Her little heart beat so loud 
(And then?) 
And then baby, everything…went…black 

Now when she opened her eyes 
She was dead as dust 
Her jewels were missing 
And her heart was bust 
So she made a vow right under that tree 
That she’d wait for her [bad word] love [bad word] set her free 
Always waiting for someone to ask for her hand 
When out of the [bad word] this groovy young man 
Who vows forever to be by her side 
And that’s the story of our CORPSE BRIDE 

Die Die 
We all pass away 
Don’t wear a frown, cause it’s really ok 
You might try and hide 
And you might try to pray 
But we all end up 
The remains of the day 

YEAH
