[[Verse 1] [female] [dark] [smooth] Pom-poms dragging through the dirt Fresh red lipstick, torn-up skirt Headstones shaking to the kick drum sound Something pretty's crawling out Cold hands reaching for the sky No one here is asking why Hear that rhythm underneath the ground Baby, don't you turn around [Pre-Chorus] [build] [haunting] One by one Here they come Feel the cemetery shake [powerful] [intense] Wake the queens Wake the crowd Wake every body underground [Chorus] [female] [powerful] [double tracked] [background vocals] Dead girls dance like they never died Six feet down, now we're coming alive Raise the dead, raise the volume high We got all damn night 'cause we already died [background vocals] [chant] HEY! HEY! [female] [powerful] No heartbeat but we're keeping time Cold blue lips and a wicked smile When the whole damn squad comes back to life Dead girls dance like they never died [Drop] [distorted] LIKE THEY NEVER DIED. [Drop] [distorted] LIKE THEY NEVER DIED. [Verse 2] [female] [playful] [seductive] Prom queen still in her tattered dress Homecoming sash a holy mess Little Miss Perfect lost her crown Doesn't give a damn underground There's a bride who never made the aisle Still got flowers, still got style Death couldn't steal her honeymoon night So somebody hit those fucking lights [Pre-Chorus] [build] [background vocals] One by one Here they come Hear the cemetery shake [female] [yell] WAKE THE QUEENS WAKE THE CROWD WAKE EVERY BODY UNDERGROUND [Chorus] [female] [powerful] [harmonized] [wide] Dead girls dance like they never died Six feet down, now we're coming alive Raise the dead, raise the volume high We got all damn night 'cause we already died [female] [powerful] No heartbeat but we're keeping time Cold blue lips and a wicked smile When the whole damn squad comes back to life Dead girls dance like they never died [Breakdown] [distorted] [growl] NO PULSE. [background vocals] NO PROBLEM. [growl] NO SOUL. [background vocals] WHO WANTS ONE? [scream] RAISE THE DEAD! [Heavy distorted guitar and industrial bass breakdown] [[Bridge] [haunting] [female] [far away] [reverb] And when morning finds the cemetery Quiet underneath the gray Don't believe the dead are resting [close mic] [whisper] They're just waiting... [Break] [whisper] ...for the DJ to press play. [Drop] [Final Chorus] [female] [powerful] [choir] [double tracked] [wide] DEAD GIRLS DANCE LIKE THEY NEVER DIED Six feet down, now we're coming alive Raise the dead, raise the volume high We got all damn night 'cause we already died No heartbeat but we're keeping time Cold blue lips and a wicked smile When the clock strikes twelve and the moon burns white DEAD GIRLS DANCE LIKE THEY NEVER DIED [background vocals] [cheer chant] DEAD! GIRLS! DANCE! DEAD! GIRLS! DANCE! [Rowan] [scream] ONE MORE TIME! [background vocals] DEAD! GIRLS! DANCE! [outro][whisper] [far away] [echo][fade out] ...like we never died.
