Raise the Dead for Rock 'n' Roll
[Verse 1 – (Jupiter Morrow, gritty rock)] The crypt doors slam and the coffin lid shakes, The guitars wail and the graveyard wakes, From the dungeon to the midnight stage, We’re breaking chains, let the monsters rage! [Pre-Chorus – (Avaline Ingels, soaring vocal)] Light the fire, beat the drum, Every spirit, everyone! [Chorus – (All voices, roaring)] Raise the dead for rock ’n’ roll! Shake the tomb and save your soul! Sing it loud, the night’s alive, Rock ’n’ roll will never die! [Verse 2 – (Vieira Nova, glam theatrical)] The vampires strut in their velvet shoes, The witches wail out the midnight blues, Skeletons rattle, the wolves all howl, The music’s magic, it shakes the ground! [Pre-Chorus – (Jermaine Germaine, funky accent, call-and-response)] Can you hear it? (Yeah, we can!) Can you feel it? (Yes we can!) [Chorus – (All voices, layered harmonies + crowd chant)] Raise the dead for rock ’n’ roll! Shake the tomb and save your soul! Sing it loud, the night’s alive, Rock ’n’ roll will never die! [Bridge – (Something Else, spoken roll-call in Vincent Price-style)] “Witches, warlocks, creatures of the night… Join the choir, scream with fright! Mummies, monsters, goblins, ghouls… Pick up a guitar and break the rules!” [Final Chorus – (All voices + crowd chants + children’s choir)] Raise the dead for rock ’n’ roll! Shake the tomb and save your soul! Sing it loud, the night’s alive, Rock ’n’ roll will never die!
