Nellie McKay - Zombie lyrics
[Nellie McKay - Zombie lyrics]
(woah)
Woman to woman, I gotta tell you 'bout
(a curse) a curse that rose out of the deep
Green swamp (uh huh)
It hollers "murder", and it makes you jump
And then it says do the Zombie
Do the Zombie, woah, yeah do the Zombie
Do the Zombie, woah, yeah
When I was younger, just a little girl (woah)
Lennon glasses and a ponytail (uh huh)
My mama told me, "Honey, pack your trunk"
(woah) "We're goin' to Mississippi
Do the Bayou Bump"
Where they say do the Zombie
Do the Zombie, woah, yeah do the Zombie
Do the Zombie, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
One day, I set out for a walk
The path soon grew quite dark
I saw my shadow runnin' faster
Hurry, slow-mo, comin' after me after me
And it said do the Zombie
Do the Zombie, woah, yeah do the Zombie
Do the Zombie, woah, yeah
And zombie don't have to dance (sha, la, la)
And zombie don't dance at your command
(sha, la, la)
But zombie don't have to wait (sha, la, la)
So come on (come on) do the Voodoo Shake
Do the Zombie do the Zombie woah, yeah
One day, I set out for a walk
The path soon grew quite dark
I saw my shadow runnin' faster
Hurry, slow-mo, comin' after me after me
And it said
Do the Zombie do the Zombie, woah, yeah
Do the Zombie
Do the Zombie, woah, woah, yeah
The sun is shinin' and you're feelin' fine
(woah)
As you pass the Mason-Dixie line (uh huh)
The forest echoes, and the tree leaves snap
(woah) hey what's that sound, spin around
Who dat
Then they say do the Zombie
Do the Zombie, woah, yeah do the Zombie
Do the Zombie, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Do the Zombie, Zombie, woah, yeah
Do the Zombie do the Zombie
Woah, woah, yeah do the Zombie
Do the Zombie, Zombie, Zombie, the Zombie
Do the Zombie, Zombie, Zombie
