Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Halloween girl, seize the fray
Brothers and sisters, lead the way
Shackled to the rhythm, your soul is weighed
So you better get down on your knees and pray
[Verse 2]
Comin' out for the Hawsker mad bull
Jumpin on the hot seat, lyin' in the dead pool
Delivery quake, expensive mistake
The damage, the damage, the damage, the damage
[PreChorus]
Hey, no way
Some ghost jive in a AC Cobra
Auto-da-fé
Get dirty up on a Danse Macabre
Hey, no way
I had you down for the cat's pajamas
Auto-da-fé
Get dirty up on the Danse Macabre
[Chorus]
If you don't mind, if you don't mind
If you don't mind, if you don't mind
If you don't mind, if you don't mind
If you don't mind, if you don't mind
[PostChorus]
Heaven's sake, don't blow your karma
Liberate your Danse Macabre
[Verse 3]
Zombie in the back room, nuns in the bed
Kids in KISS makeup, toastin' the bread
An Elvis moans a lone Natty Dread
With death in the living room, offering a head
[Verse 4]
Are you watching? Are you watching?
Collars and chains and cuffs are matching
Kamikaze stag do, twist and shout
At Sudan Archives on a girls' night out
[PreChorus]
Hey, no way
Some ghost jive in a AC Cobra
Auto-da-fé
Get dirty up on a Danse Macabre
Hey, no way
I had you down for the cat's pajamas
Auto-da-fé
Get dirty up on the Danse Macabre
[Chorus]
If you don't mind, if you don't mind
If you don't mind, if you don't mind
If you don't mind, if you don't mind
If you don't mind, if you don't mind
[Instrumental]
If you don't mind, if you don't mind
If you don't mind, if you don't mind
If you don't mind, if you don't mind
If you don't mind, if you don't mind
[Chorus]
If you don't mind, if you don't mind (For heaven's sake, don't blow your karma)
If you don't mind, if you don't mind
If you don't mind, if you don't mind (Liberate your Danse Macabre)
If you don't mind, if you don't mind
If you don't mind, if you don't mind (For heaven's sake, don't blow your karma)
If you don't mind, if you don't mind
