I see
a graveyard's past
The revolution's
taken back
Whatever happened
to the sons
No more sunshine here
only darkness here
There's no~one
living in this town
Cause the dead
are dancing
The dead
are dancing
The dead are dancing
in the town
Yes the dead
are dancing
The dead
are dancing
The dead are dancing
in the town

Mother mary
comes to me
In this graveyard
of hypocricy
But father renta says
I'll have to pay
In the dead
are buried lies
A sinful
phantom cries
Can't we just
rest up on the hill
But the moonlight
calls us
The moon it
calls us
Up and out
into the town
Yes the dead
are dancing
The dead
are dancing
The dead are dancing
in the town

Heaven does
it come to me
In the dreaming that
my soul's been freed
And the torment of
my madness gone away
And though
god says he loves
And I
I think of love
I cannot
change the way I am
And so the moon
it calls me
The lunatic
calls me
Up and out
into the town
Yes the dead
are dancing
The dead
are dancing
The dead are dancing
in the town
