been written off for dead and gone now
turned your back and drift away
you pave this path your on with sorrow
roam this road with one foot in the grave
chorus:
you gotta roll out the red carpet
theres a dead man coming on in
you gotta roll out the red carpet
you gotta roll out the red carpet
an empty soul and a bottle of gin
you gotta roll out the red carpet
your demise is intoxicating
all your troubles will soon be history
the undertakers they stand waiting
this was the life you chose to lead
chorus...
your final days are upon you
and you soon will be buried deep
you rambled this world as a stranger
of you nobody has no memory
chorus...
