Breakfast With the Corpses.
Cracked coffee cups, rotten eggs
Sweat drip, varicose legs
Meaty smell of death
Tomorrow is impossible; exhale the wheezing breath
It's breakfast with the corpses and thier rolling eyes
These are those who listen to death rattle lullabies
Its breakfast with the corpses, here there is no surprise
Take your order, take a number
Waiting for eternal slumber
Eat your pancakes, get your fill
Life is the only way to pay this bill
It's breakfast with the corpses and thier rolling eyes
These are those who listen to death rattle lullabies
Its breakfast with the corpses, here there is no surprise

It's sad when you think about it, when a peson is dead they are soon forgotten by the masses
