lyrics

VIRGIL
LOT OF TROUBLE SINCE THE DAY I GOT THE SACK, BACK
IN SEVENTY FIVE. THEN ELVIS DIED.
KICKED A HOLE IN OUR DOOR, NOW IT'S A CATFLAP.
I FELT SO NUMB I CRIED AND CRIED.

LOT OF TROUBLE, LOT OF ROWS, A LOT OF CLAPTRAP.
I'D TAKE RIGHT OFF AND DOWN OUR STREET.
CAME AND WENT, BUT I ALWAYS HUNG ME CAP BACK,
UNTIL OUR SHARON WAS INDISCREET.

VIRGIL climbs out of his coffin.

THEN I JUST FREAKED, SNEAKED OUT THE BACK DOOR
THINKING WHAT'S THE USE IN LIFE,
THE ENDLESS STRIFE, WHAT’S IT FOR?
AND THAT IS WHY I JUMPED OFF A BRIDGE.
GOT MYSELF EMBALMED AND SPENT A COLD AND LONELY
NIGHT INSIDE A FRIDGE.

SINGING ELVIS IN ME LOCAL KARAOKE
ALWAYS GUARANTEED AN EXTRA-MARITAL FLING
IF SHARON KNEW SHE WAS ALWAYS OKEY DOKEY
IT DIDN'T MEAN NOTHING, THAT WAS THE THING.

SOMEHOW OR OTHER, SEEMS I DID OFFEND HER
SHE BEGAN TO PLAY ME AT MY OWN GAME

VIRGIL
NEVER DARED GO ON ANOTHER NAUGHTY BENDER
COS WHENEVER I WENT - a stranger came!

I KNEW WE'D PEAKED, SNEAKED OUT THE BACK DOOR
THINKING WHAT'S THE USE IN LIFE, IT’S JUST NOT RIGHT ANYMORE.
AND THAT IS WHY I JUMPED OFF A BRIDGE.
GOT MYSELF EMBALMED AND SPENT A COLD AND LONELY
NIGHT INSIDE A FRIDGE.

UNDERSCORE continues. DAI THE DEATH emerges from the shadows. He and VIRGIL fall into step.

DAI
I trust you 'ave enjoyed the journey so far?

VIRGIL
Yes, very nice, very comfortable.

DAI
Coffin wasn't just an incy bit tight?

VIRGIL
No, good fit, nice lining.

DAI
Pleasant post mortem?

VIRGIL
Fine, fine.

DAI
I had to break a few bones. You died with a fierce ...

VIRGIL
No hard feelings, none whatsoever.

DAI slinks back into the shadows. VIRGIL climbs back into his coffin.

VIRGIL
SO I JUST FREAKED, SNEAKED OUT THE BACK DOOR
THINKING GOODBYE CRUEL WORLD,
WHAT DOES MY GIRL TAKE ME FOR?
AND THAT IS WHY I JUMPED FROM A BRIDGE.
GOT MYSELF EMBALMED AND SPENT A COLD AND LONELY
NIGHT INSIDE A FRIDGE. INSIDE A FRIDGE.
INSIDE A… A FRIDGE.
