[00:14.879] Death orders a drink, "Something pink with cherries
[00:19.009] And a sugar rim," he says
[00:21.088] "And make sure it's sweet"
[00:23.950] He grabs his wallet from his shirt pocket
[00:26.528] And two gold teeth clink in his empty glass
[00:30.416] He rattles them and laughs
[00:33.528] An older woman in a stained sundress
[00:36.364] Sits down right next to Death and says
[00:39.228] "You got some ****ed up eyes, but they seem wild"
[00:43.345] Death takes off his glasses and smiles
[00:46.168] As she flashes a big bag full of blow
[00:49.548] Saying, "Tonight's so slow
[00:52.633] Wish this place would explode"
[00:54.938] He says "I
[00:57.762] Yeah, I am not your kind"
[01:02.431] (Come on, baby, let's have some fun)
[01:04.535] You'll see (Come on, baby, let's have some fun)
[01:07.885] And you'll see
[01:10.959] When you see me in the light
[01:15.824] (Come on, baby, let's have some fun)
[01:18.175] You'll see me in the light (Come on, baby, let's have some fun)
[01:20.788] Hey
[01:32.357] He puts his glasses back on, sees a lightning bug blinking
[01:35.751] Flipping around in her hair
[01:38.344] He flicks it on the bar and stares
[01:41.446] She says, "I never see these things
[01:44.061] Not around here, not this time of year"
[01:47.951] Then she drowns it with her beer
[01:51.331] Death's face lights up as she plucks
[01:53.671] Each of its struggling wings and says
[01:57.291] "I hear they're all dying, city light's too confusing"
[02:01.912] Death's crooning
[02:02.942] I
[02:05.544] Yeah, I am not your kind
[02:10.448] (Come on, baby, let's have some fun)
[02:12.286] You'll see (Come on, baby, let's have some fun)
[02:15.150] And you'll see
[02:18.791] When you see me in the light
[02:23.488] (Come on, baby, let's have some fun)
[02:25.544] You'll see in the light (Come on, baby, let's have some fun)
[02:28.901] Hey
[02:33.054] He looks at her dress and thinks about wearing it
[02:36.411] Tearing its seams and stretching it on his fat body
[02:40.551] 'Til the stain settles over his heart
[02:42.860] But there's other relics in the trunk of his car
[02:45.947] Countless years of collecting, keeping his favorites close
[02:49.830] This filthy flower-print dress would fit in nice, though
[02:53.971] He drains his cosmo and says
[02:56.827] "It's been a pleasure, but you gotta know"
[02:59.171] I am not your kind
[03:03.608] (Come on, baby, let's have some fun)
[03:05.191] You'll see (Come on, baby, let's have some fun)
[03:08.321] And you'll see
[03:11.689] When I feel that it's your time
[03:16.087] (Come on, baby, let's have some fun)
[03:18.421] When I feel it's your time (Come on, baby, let's have some fun)
[03:22.810] And what she said echoes
[03:26.711] (I'll be in the bathroom waiting) As he drives away, woo
[03:34.384] (I'll be in the bathroom waiting) Fly squirming in a web, yeah
[03:39.569] (I'll be in the bathroom waiting) As he drives away
[03:46.014] (I'll be in the bathroom waiting) Puts a blonde wig on his head
[03:51.478] (I'll be in the bathroom waiting) As he drives away
[03:56.978] (I'll be in the bathroom) Laughing like a pig squeals
[04:00.856] As he turns around
