Lyrics
As he did so, her body slammed backwards
At first it seemed that she was only sleeping (she was already dead)
Cold (she was unmistakably anywhere)
Dead
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah sweetheart!
Oh yes, he called her name
Look at the mess in your party dress!
Baby's gone blue
That fixed expression was so dark
Yes, she was unmistakably gone
Who are you going to send flowers to? (Rhythmically on and off)
Who are you going to send flowers to? (So, you ain't done with Sarah?)
They are unmistakably dead (she was oversleeping)
Oh yes, he called her name
Did you hear about that?
That fixed expression, blurred to distinguish her outline
Didn't feel right (it was dark, did you hear about that?)
Cold, dead
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, sweetheart!
(Called her name, did you hear about that?)
Crash out in a drunken stupor, alcohol
Straight (so we went to the picture...)
Look at the mess (did you hear about that? In your party dress!
Baby's gone blue
Her face, turned away from him (open blind)
Did you hear about that? It was so dark
He crashed out in a drunken stupor
Alcohol hanging sickly in the air
At first it seemed that she was only sleeping
Oh yes, she was dead
But then, as he did so
Her body slumped backwards
At first it seemed that she was only sleeping
The first thing to hit him, first thing to hit him
Barely distinguishing her outline
It didn't feel right, that sick expression
That was when he saw her eyes and knew she was already dead
Blue lights through the half-opened blind
What? About half ten?
Okay
