Drinking and dancing and female nudity
Wave around the bonfire as they weave their witchery
Disembrained hands take the brains from your head
Because once you look into their eyes
You'll see their face is full of worms
A heap of guts in clever disguise
Their aim to make you zombified
No! (No!) It can't be you you're dead! (Dead!)
No! (No!) You can't bury me, I'm alive! (Alive!)
Lusting for treasure, killing for wealth
Enslaving the natives and toasting your health
Drums of the voodoo gods sound out in the swamp
Resurrection ritual, it's you that they want
Once you looked into their eyes
They will teach to be afraid
They're cruel like never before
No! (No!) It can't be you you're dead! (Dead!)
No! (No!) You can't bury me, I'm alive! (Alive!)
Approaching the plantation at the setting of the sun
Now you'll see before your eyes what voodoo rights have done
Retiring to your mansion to count your wealth once more
Fingernails will scratch the pine, throwing back the door to say...
No! (No!) It can't be you you're dead! (Dead!)
No! (No!) You can't bury me, I'm alive! (Alive!)
I'm alive!
