Zombies are Comin!Copyright © 2014 Tennyson Road Music
{intro}
My neighbour came callin' in the dead of night
His knees were knockin' and his face was white
I couldn't understand him - he was stammerin' on
As he stood on my varandah with pajamas on
{pre}
I thought he would choke
On the words he spoke
But he managed to spit them out
{ch}
"Zombies c-comin'! They're on our s-street!
Zombies are c-comin'! Better m-move your f-feet!"
Well I may be superstitious but I ain't no fool
The neighbour's known for his drinkin' and he'd had a few
So I ran out in the alley way to check it out
And what I was saw was so appalling I got set to shout
Did you ever dream
And you wanted to scream
But you couldn't get it out of your mouth?
Zombies are comin' - They're on our street
Zombies are comin' - and they want our meat
Zombies are comin' - when the dead attack
Zombies are comin' - better watch your back!
solo (to verse)
Now there's my auntie Mary, dear uncle Fred
After eighty years of married, ten years of dead
There's my ugly granny, half her face is gone
She's lookin' twice as good as when her life was on
Jerry and Jean
Lookin' scarey and mean
Makin' everybody run and shout - SHOUT!
Zombies are comin' - and they're on our street
Zombies are comin' - and they want our meat
Zombies are comin' – when those things attack
Zombies are comin' - better watch your back
{br}
Oh they came in late November and December too
Be a shame if they remember to dismember you
But maybe they'll get tired and go back to their crypts
Gee, I hope it's not the start of an Apocalypse!
Where the zombies control
This little world we know
And the rest of us turn to chow - OWW!!
Zombies are comin' - and they're on our street
Zombies are comin' - and they want a treat!
Zombies are comin' – when the dead attack
Zombies are comin' - better watch your back
{build}
Zombies are comin'
Zombies are comin'
Zombies are comin' – when that thing attacks
Zombies are comin' – better SWING.. YOUR.. AXE!!!
