about

A song for the newly arrived corpses to let them know that it’s not all bad news: the underworld has a house band, death is a cabaret and there’ll be a song or two to help us while away eternity.

lyrics

Life is something cruel and hazardous
No longer for the likes of you
Are you hoping for a Lazarus?
Are you feeling kind of blue?
We could make our days like Saturdays
We could dance the whole night through

Necropolitan!
Catch us if you can
Coming to a crypt near you
Necropolitan!
All your run is ran
And we’ll see you in the graveyard soon

Even if the sky be falling
On all you couldn’t take with you
Save your moans and groans
And shake your sorry bones
When your noggin feels like a Monday morning
We can make your days like Saturdays
We could dance the whole night through

Necropolitan!
Catch us if you can
Coming to a crypt near you
Necropolitan!
All your run is ran
And we’ll see you in the graveyard soon

Lalarahdahrah!
Ladahrahdarahrahrah!
So come on,
Leave your creaky lodge
We’ll do the coffi n dodge
And all my lovelies, you don’t know you’re born
Cos we can make our days like Saturdays
We can dance the whole night through

Necropolitan!
Catch us if you can
Coming to a crypt near you
Necropolitan!
All your run is ran
And we’ll see you in the graveyard soon
Necropolitan!
Come and hear the band
Coming to a crypt near you
Necropolitan!
Lost in Underland
But we’ll see you in the graveyard
(see you in the graveyard)
See you in the graveyard soon

Lalarahdarah!
Ladarahdarahrahrah!
