The Netherworld lyrics - Creature Feature

There exists a secret place
Heralded by death embrace
Soon you'll learn what's life after death
Soon after your corpse has been dressed
You can only come around
As you're buried six feet down
When your body functions have ceased
The maggots begin to feast

You'll be the life of the party
Way down at the cemetery

Far below the hollowed ground
Far from the safe lights of town
At home amongst the beatles and worms
Where the creepy crawlies will squirm
Unfortunately it isn't heaven
Fortunately it's not quite hell
It's a place of legend and myth
Where the reaper has gonna amiss

You'll be the life of the party
Way down at the cemetery

You will soon depart from the heart in your chest
Lalalalalalalalalalala
For its incessant beating will eventually end
Lalalalalalalalalalala
You wont need the flood of warm blood in your veins
Lalalalalalalalalalala
For every single crimson drop will surely be drained
Lalalalalalalalalalala

All your worthy posessions
And all your measly Convictions
Will be useless after the day you die
You wont need them on the other side
Now as your pulse subsides
Time has come to say your goodbyes

Saint Peter doesn't call your name
But your body does not drown in flames
You'll exist beyond creation
No hope for reincarnation
Once they carve out your headstone
and you're nothing left but a bag of bones
You'll recieve an invitation
to the life between the stations

You'll be the life of the party
Way down at the cemetery

A casket holds your lifeless form
That chunk of meat is no longer warm
Before all your insides begin to curd
You'll transcend into an Ether
Every lost soul migrates here
As the real world sheds a tear
A spirit not fit for ascension
A soul not fit for redemption

You'll be the life of the party
Way down at the cemetery

You will soon depart from the heart in your chest
Lalalalalalalalalalala
For its incessant beating will eventually end
Lalalalalalalalalalala
You wont need the flood of warm blood in your veins
Lalalalalalalalalalala
For every single crimson drop will surely be drained
Lalalalalalalalalalala

All your worthy posessions
And all your measly Convictions
Will be useless after the day you die
You wont need them on the other side
Now as your pulse subsides
Time has come to say your goodbyes

Well now, it seems you've been cursed to wander
Into the pitch black Yonder
You cannot be saved
Now your body lies in a cold, cold grave!

Well now, it seems you're off the beaten path
An exiled outcast
What lies ahead? Face the facts, son
You are, DEAD, DEAD, DEAD!

Well now, it seems you've come to a realization
That you're an abomination
So don't be sad, life after death isn't Bad, Bad, Bad!

Well now, I really must be on my way
There's other folks who've gone astray
It never ends, go forth and haunt
Make some enemies!...or friends!

You will soon depart from the heart in your chest
Lalalalalalalalalalala
For its incessant beating will eventually end
Lalalalalalalalalalala
You wont need the flood of warm blood in your veins
Lalalalalalalalalalala
For every single crimson drop will surely be drained
Lalalalalalalalalalala

All your worthy posessions
And all your measly Convictions
Will be useless after the day you die
You wont need them on the other side
Now as your pulse subsides
Time has come to say your goodbyes

It wants you! It gets you!
Firmly in its grip!
Sit back, don't fight!
Go along for the trip
Prepare to be scared
Right out of your skin
Welcome to the Netherworld where your new life begins!
