5. 99 Ways to Die (3:58)
If I see the morning hours, I’ll have one more yesterday
Take life from tomorrow ‘cause I’ve burned out my today
If I get up to the top I know, I’ll just go back downhill
I’ve gotta terminal future and it’s time to write my will
Ah! Down another glass of courage
And a shot of Thorazine
We’re not ready to see you yet, 99 ways to die
We’re not ready to see you yet
Gotta short between the earphones, wringing my hands in dismay
A more efficient maniac with two feet in the grave
Ain’t got no last words to say, yellow streak right up my spine
The gun in my mouth was real and the taste blew my mind yeah
In a black tie and straight jacket
Man, I’m gonna try again
We’re not ready to see you yet, 99 ways to die
We’re not ready to see you yet
We’re not ready to see you yet, 99 ways to die
We’re not ready to see you yet
We’ll have demitasse of arsenic
Try on this tie
Never mind the tree
There is only death and danger in the socket of my eyes
A playground of illusion, no one plays, they only die
There’s a prison in my mind and the bars are gonna break
I’m as mad as a hatter and strung out just the same
Taunting rigor Mortis
I feel it draw me in
We’re not ready to see you yet, 99 ways to die
We’re not ready to see you yet
We’re not ready to see you yet, 99 ways to die
We’re not ready to see you yet
We’re not ready
We’re not ready
We’re not ready
99, 99
Take life from tomorrow ‘cause I’ve burned out my today
If I get up to the top I know, I’ll just go back downhill
I’ve gotta terminal future and it’s time to write my will
Ah! Down another glass of courage
And a shot of Thorazine
We’re not ready to see you yet, 99 ways to die
We’re not ready to see you yet
Gotta short between the earphones, wringing my hands in dismay
A more efficient maniac with two feet in the grave
Ain’t got no last words to say, yellow streak right up my spine
The gun in my mouth was real and the taste blew my mind yeah
In a black tie and straight jacket
Man, I’m gonna try again
We’re not ready to see you yet, 99 ways to die
We’re not ready to see you yet
We’re not ready to see you yet, 99 ways to die
We’re not ready to see you yet
We’ll have demitasse of arsenic
Try on this tie
Never mind the tree
There is only death and danger in the socket of my eyes
A playground of illusion, no one plays, they only die
There’s a prison in my mind and the bars are gonna break
I’m as mad as a hatter and strung out just the same
Taunting rigor Mortis
I feel it draw me in
We’re not ready to see you yet, 99 ways to die
We’re not ready to see you yet
We’re not ready to see you yet, 99 ways to die
We’re not ready to see you yet
We’re not ready
We’re not ready
We’re not ready
99, 99
