Dead Or Alive

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

There in the shadows, looks like a hand

Without its owner to give it a command

It's got a purpose, but I don't know what it is

I'm in trouble

There in the streets, looks like a man

But something wrong that I don't understand

His eyes are open, but he doesn't see a thing

His skin is peeling off; his bones are sticking out

I'm getting scared

[Chorus]

Oh, my God (Is it dead?)

Is it living? (Is it dead?)

Is it dead or alive?

(Is it dead?) Is it dead? (Is it dead?)

Is it dead? (Is it dead?)

Is it dead or alive?

[Verse 2]

Hiding in the cupboards like little mice

Hiding in the 'frigerator; that isn't nice, now

It's not an animal; it don't have legs

No one else can see it

It moves so fast, corner of my eye

Look again, it's gone; it's hiding

Won't somebody help me? Doesn't anybody care?

It waits so patiently for me to lose my guard

I'm getting scared

[Chorus]

Oh, my God (Is it dead?)

Is it living? (Is it dead?)

Is it dead or alive?

(Is it dead?) Is it dead? (Is it dead?)

Is it dead? (Is it dead?)

Is it dead or alive?

Is it dead?

Is it dead? Is it?

(Is it dead?) Is it dead?

(Is it dead?) Is it dead or alive?

(Is it dead?) Is it dead?

(Is it dead?) Is it dead? Is it?

[Verse 3]

I remember there was a time

When 'dead' and 'buried' meant just that

Underneath the cold, dark ground

Things stay put!

Oh, them bones, they make them bodies walk

Them bones, them bones

If they could only talk!

[Chorus]

Oh, my God (Is it dead?)

Is it living? (Is it dead?)

Is it dead or alive?

(Is it dead?) Is it dead? (Is it dead?)

Is it dead? (Is it dead?)

Is it dead or alive?

Is it dead?

Is it dead? Is it?

(Is it dead?) Is it dead?

(Is it dead?) Is it dead or alive?

(Is it dead?) Is it dead?

(Is it dead?) Is it dead? Is it?

(Is it dead?) Is it dead?

(Is it dead?)

[Outro]

Is it dead? Is it dead?

Is it dead? Is it dead?

Is it dead? Is it dead?

Is it dead? Is it dead? Is it dead?
