The Gothic Archies, Neil Hannon - The Dead Only Quickly lyrics

[The Gothic Archies, Neil Hannon - The Dead Only Quickly lyrics]

Priests and fools say
We are but animate clay we're crude vessels
Housing immortal souls

But the dead only quickly decay
They don't go about being born and reborn
And rising and falling like soufflé
The dead only quickly decay

It would be swell
To see some folk burn in hell
But when they go
Its just as pleseant to know

That the dead only quickly decay
They don't go about being born and reborn
And rising and falling like soufflé
The dead only quickly decay
