Los Restos Del Dia

Hey! Listen to me, I want to tell you
At least some who can hear
I have a story that will make you cry
About our dead girlfriend some time ago

Yes, you will have to die!
But don't worry, you won't suffer
Trying to hide or trying to pray
The end will come, there's nothing you can do

(Nyah-nyah-nyah-nyah-nyah!), (nyah-nyah-nyah!)
Hey! She was attractive and well-known
When a stranger entered her life
He was good-looking and skilled in speaking
And that's how she fell into his arms without thinking

She didn't want to talk because dad said: No!
And that's how they planned to escape together

Yes, you will have to die!
But don't worry, you won't suffer
Trying to hide or trying to pray
The end will come, there's nothing you can do

(Nyah-nyah-nyah-nyah-nyah!)
(Nyah-nyah-nyah-nyah-nyah!)
(Nyah-nyah-nyah-nyah-nyah!)
(Nyah-nyah-nyah!)

Yeah! They devised a plan to escape
Nothing was said! About the secret or the plan
The wedding dress belonged to mom
If there's love in your life, you won't lack anything
Except for a few things as I just said
Family jewels and money too

And near the yard where the old oak tree stands
One foggy night, fifteen minutes to three
She was ready to go, and where was he?

And then?
He waited
And then?
He saw a shadow, was it her lover?

And then?!
Her heart beat fast
And then?!
Then, baby, everything went dark

And when she woke up, she was already dead
The jewels were gone, just like her life
She made a promise under the tree
Hoping for her love to set her free
Waiting for the one who would ask for her hand
When out of nowhere! This boy appeared
He swore to be by her side forever
And that's the story of our non-bride!

Yes, you will have to die!
But don't worry, you won't suffer
Trying to hide or trying to pray
The end will come, there's nothing you can do
