Lyrics

Death Went Dancing

Death went dancing
Like some college kid
No one took him seriously
No one cared what he did

He took off his weathered robe
Lay down his battered scythe
Between the rhythm and the heat
No one caught his eye

Death went dancing
He fell on the slippery floor
Thought he might have chipped a bone
Laughed when he got the joke

He moved like a hungry ghost
Saw the desperate need
But no matter how he tried
No one would let him lead
