Paroles

Juan Schwartz:
Dead, dead, dead.
Someday you'll be dead.
Dead, dead, dead.
Someday we'll all be dead.

The minute we're born we start dying,
We die a little more every day.
Young or old, rich or poor,
There's nothing we can do to stop it.

So look long at that Christmas tree,
It may be the last one that you see.
Decorate your house in green and red
'Cause someday you'll be dead.

Together:
Dead, dead, dead.
Someday you'll be dead.
Dead, dead, dead.
Someday we'll all be dead.

Juan Schwartz:
It might happen in a couple of months
Or fifty years from now.
But no matter when it happens,
It will seem too soon to you.

So be sure on Christmas Eve,
When you snuggle into bed
That you thank God for your family
'Cause someday they'll be dead.

Together:
Dead, dead, dead.
Someday they'll be dead.
Dead, dead, dead.
Someday we'll all be dead.

Juan Schwartz:
Who knows how many Christmases
Are left in their short lives.
Nobody knows, that's my point!
Enjoy it while you can.

And so on Christmas morning,
Let good tidings fill your head.
What a festive season,
Someday you'll be dead.

Together:
Dead, dead, dead.
Someday we'll be dead.
Dead, dead, dead.

Juan Schwartz:
Everyone you know...

Together:
Dead.

Juan Schwartz:
A very merry Christmas to you.

Together:
Dead, dead, dead...

South Park Children's Choir:
Merry Christmas everybody!
