People Love To Watch You Die Songtext
People love to watch you die And wonderful to tell People you have never met Claim to know you well People love to watch you die Dig your dignity One guy said 'he's better dead Than how he used to be' They'll sell the souvenirs And the relics of your tears They build a little shrine, wait until it shines They love to watch you die and you know why People love to watch you die It gets them sexually And then they smoke a cigarette And make a cup of tea People love to watch you fry They love to throw the switch They'll either have you crucified Or burn you as a witch They send bouquets of flowers And then stare at space for hours They build a little shrine, wait until it shines They love to watch you die and you know why People love to watch you die Then give your family hell They call it grief but it's just a relief And they know that full well People love to watch you drown The symbol's what they need They'd rather not see you at all Than watch your hair recede And just to watch your pain They'd bring you back to life again They build a little shrine, sing you Auld Lang Syne They love to watch you die and you know why
