The Lyrics
Love lives long after life is gone. That is demonstrated in this morgue where two corpses find love after death.
Verse 1: The cor’ner keeps the morgue cold and fresh
A grey hue dons my skin
But your beauty starts to warm my flesh
Life has found me again
All my joints stiff as a board
I’m locked inside my drawer
My teeth are wired together
But I’m… singing ballads though
Chorus: Love can go even further if
We can feel mortuary love
And I cannot die any deader
If we can steal this mortuary love
Ooo…
Verse 2: Don’t know why or the way you died
At best it’s still bad
The same end has come upon you and I
We’re laid beside on our slabs
My heart’s there in that jar
It was taken out, but it’s beating harder
Cut me and I’d still bleed
I’m embalmed, but can’t formalde-hide
Chorus: Cuz I can’t fight any harder for
Your kiss of mortuary love
And we cannot put out this fire
Just cremate doubt of mortuary love
Does your blood run cold, for mortuary love?
[Instrumental Break]
Chorus: It’s not death do us part because
We have sealed mortuary love
And you cannot breach our desire
Cuz you can’t feel mortuary love
Chorus: We can’t fall any harder since
We both feel mortuary love
But we cannot beat rigor mortis
That’s not ideal mortuary love…
A grey hue dons my skin
But your beauty starts to warm my flesh
Life has found me again
All my joints stiff as a board
I’m locked inside my drawer
My teeth are wired together
But I’m… singing ballads though
Chorus: Love can go even further if
We can feel mortuary love
And I cannot die any deader
If we can steal this mortuary love
Ooo…
Verse 2: Don’t know why or the way you died
At best it’s still bad
The same end has come upon you and I
We’re laid beside on our slabs
My heart’s there in that jar
It was taken out, but it’s beating harder
Cut me and I’d still bleed
I’m embalmed, but can’t formalde-hide
Chorus: Cuz I can’t fight any harder for
Your kiss of mortuary love
And we cannot put out this fire
Just cremate doubt of mortuary love
Does your blood run cold, for mortuary love?
[Instrumental Break]
Chorus: It’s not death do us part because
We have sealed mortuary love
And you cannot breach our desire
Cuz you can’t feel mortuary love
Chorus: We can’t fall any harder since
We both feel mortuary love
But we cannot beat rigor mortis
That’s not ideal mortuary love…

That's some ca-reepy material there. Didn't get too sick in spite of itself, so it kept it light and engaging. Nice.
(ABC) Oddly endearing for a parody about corpses shagging. Pretty good stuff here, 555!
Feel a little icky reading this one but since I love horror and horror related stuff this one was a good time. Pretty gross but still very fun.
This was surprisingly beautiful. I've never heard the OS before, but it's kinda haunting...which makes it fit perfectly with the topic. Also, a lot of great death/corpse related puns which makes this parody a win for me. Great work!
