Lyrics

Chocolate Coffin

I was standing in your coffin

I was standing above your coffin filled with candy

Your chocolate coffin

Say goodbye to the chocolate coffin

Say goodbye to the chocolate coffin

It tastes like candy

Your coffin tastes like candy

Your coffin tastes like candy

Your coffin tastes like candy

Candy coffin candy coffin

Your coffin tastes like candy

I want to step into your cherry

(Unintelligible) your coffin

Cherries!

Ice cream (party?)

(Unintelligible)

From your apron

Put the flower down on your

Chocolate coffin

(Imma Howl?)

[Howl]

Your coffin's full of candy

Your coffin's full of candy

Your coffin's full of

Candy
