(6:52) Night Of The Living Dead Songtext
von Garland Jeffreys

It was the night of the living dead
Everybody was dead in their head
Everybody was dead and the maid was in bed
And the butler he said, "Get up"

The people were placid, so calm and collected
So utterly, utterly, so still and serene
They came in like zombies, asleep and affected
They sipped from their cocktails, an incredible scene

Just a robot actin′ crazy
He's so happy ′cause he's got some clout
Just a robot from the college
On vacation, drinkin' Dragon Stout


It was the night of the living dead
Everybody was dead in their head
Everybody was dead and the maid was in bed
And the butler he said, "Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up"

There′s David and there′s Lisa, so cold and controlled
Like frozen emotion, like ice on the ocean
The girls are all naked and wet by the pool
And the boys are all part of the jet-set, composed and so cool

Just a robot actin' crazy
She′s so happy 'cause she′s got some clout
Just a robot from the college
On vacation, drinkin' Dragon Stout

It was the night of the living dead
Everybody was dead in their head
Everybody was dead and the maid was in bed
And the butler he said, "Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up"

I′m gonna take you higher and higher
