Bring Out Your Dead

Bring out your dead! Bring out your dead!

A penny for each eye I hope you’ve fed.

Pay the ‘Ferry Man’ his cost, his fee,

Barter their souls across the sea.

Bring out your dead! Bring out your dead!

Down the ‘Reapers’ path they’ve been led.

The ‘Ferry Man’s’ pal, his chum, his mate,

The ‘Reaper’ their souls do take.

Bring out your dead! Bring out your dead!

Make ready their eternal bed.

Load the boat at the end of the pier,

Whilst dressed in black and a watery tear.

Bring out your dead! Bring out your dead!

You hear the cry run through your head.

So say goodbye to the one’s you’ll miss.

So say goodbye with a wave and a kiss.
