Remains of the Day (Песня из мультфильма Труп невесты)
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 A 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 cloud 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 a man?) 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 true love to come set her free Always waiting for someone to ask for her hand When out of the blue comes 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
