Lyrics The Tiger Lillies

The Tiger Lillies

To be or not to be

Ten men at the funeral queue

The great cadaver they do view

In the brain the blood clot

Another ten their livers rot

A hundred revolution plot

Change the world without a shot

They dream of sweet revenge

Another hundred round the bend

A thousand haven’t got a friend

They’re lonely right until the end

A thousand fires on the railway line

A thousand bottles of red wine

A hundred thousand nights divine

A hundred thousand pearls and swines

A million tears

A million fears

A million laughs

A million cheers

To be or not to be (2x)

If looks could kill a million spears

A million get me out of here

A billion heartbeats

A billion breaths

A billion pounds

They all invest

To be or not to be (2x)
