When You Are Dead Lyrics - Rage

He's got a pleasure in his life that's a real chill 

I think it's funny but the people say he's ill 

He likes to keep what's transient, save it from decay 

That's what you've got to know if you should pass his way 

He's not a killer, but death is his dearest friend 

It is for everyone beginning and the end 

And on the graveyard, where there's rich and poor the same 

He's digging in the ground to set them free again 

They've been part of the universe 

And they are unique on this earth 

And when you dies he's at your door 

I tell you what he's waiting for

He's gonna get you when you are dead 

He's gonna cut your skull free when you're dead 

He's gonna get you when you are dead 

You're gonna be the next one when you're dead 

It's a passion with him to free them from their flesh 

All night he's in the cellar rigging up remains 

And then he's got them all together one by one 

A real collector of the dead, a lucky man 

Just give a damn for reverence 

He's nuts and doesn't need no sense 

And when you die he's at your door 

I tell you what he's waiting for 

[Repeat 2nd verse]

DEAD! DEAD. 

"won't you give me your mother? 

Gonna rip her with real care 

This femoral's real fine 

Don't you shiver in your spine?"
