Lyrics[]

Die-hard fans adored your hands
They loved your throat and quote unquote "you" (oohhh ohh)
Hey, remember Michael Jackson? Michael Jackson really happened 
Delta Echo Alpha Delta, walking on the moon forever 

You are dead and buried, you are dead (Oh no) 
That's being revised! 
Even as we speak we're synthesizing blood and organs 
Synthesizing heart and soul 
Even Katy Perry knows you're dead (Oh no) 
Won't she be surprised! 
When we get your heart to start tomorrow 
When you see the chart tomorrow you'll be number one 

Bro, you look amazing 
Really put together 
It's like you haven't aged a day, oh 
It's like we know what we're doing or something 

You've been gone for way too long, like half a year 
An entire career for some 
Good luck getting into Heaven, if you live past 27 
Listen to the radiation, put you back in circulation 

You are dead and buried, you are dead (Oh no) 
Oh, but you never died! 
Even as we speak we're synthesizing blood and organs 
Synthesizing heart and soul 
Ain't no cemetery you can't shed (Oh no) 
Ain't nowhere you can hide! 
Don't be frightened of us 
Soon enough you're gonna love us, just remember 

This is your last ride ever, forever 
Fill up your lungs, feel better 
Look - it's you, good as new 
New hands, new throat, new living tissue 
You earned this new purpose 
Lifetime achievement award 

Don't be nervous baby 
We put a billion eyes back on you 
From the grave to the stage 
You're unnatural, babe!

You are dead and buried, you are dead (Oh no) 
That's being revised! 
Even as we speak we're synthesizing blood and organs 
Synthesizing heart and soul 
Even Katy Perry knows you're dead (Oh no) 
Won't she be surprised! 
When we get your heart to start tomorrow 
When you see the chart tomorrow you'll be number one 
(Oh no, oh no)

Due to my strong personal convictions, (Due to my strong personal convictions,)
I wish to stress, (I wish to stress,)
That this record, (That this record,)
In no way endorses, (In no way endorses,)
A belief in the occult (A belief in the occult)

Due to my strong personal convictions, (Due to my strong personal convictions,)
I wish to stress, (I wish to stress,)
That this record, (That this record,)
In no way endorses, (In no way endorses,)

Trivia[]

  • Early versions of this song were known as "Experiments in Revival", a reference to a 1940's Soviet medical film called Experiments in the Revival of Organisms. [1]
  • The chant at the end is a paraphrased version the disclaimer at the beginning of the video for Michael Jackson's Thriller. [2]
  • The real transcription of the line "You're (a/un)natural, babe" is contended. In the Bandcamp and physical linear notes it's put down as, "You're a natural," while Neil describes it to be "You're unnatural" in the commentary (a pun on "You're a natural.")
  • In the demo for Lifetime Achievement Award, the lines "Synthesizing heart and soul", "When you see the chart tomorrow you'll be number one", "put your back in circulation", and "Look - its you, good as new" used to be "Everything will be ok", "When you see the chart tomorrow you'll be at the top", "Televised reformation", and "Look - its you, we missed you". This in addition to the final chorus being completely missing. [3]
