Lyrics The Tiger Lillies

The Tiger Lillies

Necrophiliac

In the mortuary I had sex with a boy

The most beautiful boy I saw

The angel of death looked over us

His blessings on us swore

That boy was the one I loved

The one that I adored

That boy died in my arms

And so just once more

I made love to my dead boy

The one that I adored

Upon a marble slab

On the mortuary’s cold floor

The angel of death played a harp

A heavenly chorus sang

And as I made love to my dead boy

The tears my eyes stang

I made love to a dead boy

They said evil was I

They said the urge unnatural

Yet all the time cried

I made love to a dead boy

It was just a wave goodbye

The angel of death himself looked on

And a tear himself did cry

I made love to a dead boy

My way to say goodbye

To the only true love that I’ll know

Until the day I die

And then we’ll be united

In the cosmic void

Goodbye, my love, goodbye

I love you my dead boy
