The kids who wanna play with the dead


Was it already there in the woumb?
Were we pulled out way too soon?
Were we quiet too long? Were we too small?
Or were we dropped on the floor?

Could it be something we ate?
Did they let us stay up too late?
Were there not enough rules?
Did we get too much love?
Was it something they taught us in school?

'Cause inside something bad's awakened
The evil opens it's eyes
The temper's rising and the house is shaking
To get out is no longer an option
These are the deeds of the beast

We're the kids who wanna play with the dead
(Woah-woah!)
We must have lost our minds
'cause we might lose our heads
We're the kids who wanna play with the dead
(Woah-woah!)
See us, pretty brides, and the evil we wed
Oh Lord, we play with the dead

Was it something we saw on TV?
The films that were gross and obscene?
Is it the clothes and the black-dyed hair,
Or were we just not aware

The must have been some dangerous toys
And the music sings of murderous ploys
It�s not like we did not have a choice
Backward masking gives the devil a voice

Now we wanna play with the dead
We lose our heads
Oh Lord, now we play with the dead

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics THE KIDS WHO WANNA PLAY WITH THE DEAD of LORDI is also present in the album The arockalypse (2006)

Biografia

Lordi are a Finnish heavy metal band formed in 1996 in Rovaniemi. Known for the horror-themed theatricality that characterizes the group's image and lyrics, the name derives from the nickname of singer Tomi Putaansuu, known as Mr. Lordi. Each member wears a monster mask and a pseudonym, making it impossible to see them without their stage costumes. Musically, Lordi draws inspiration from 1980s heavy metal artists like Alice Cooper, W.A.S.P., and Twisted Sister, with influences also from glam rock. Their international success came in 2006 when they won the Eurovision Song Contest with the song "Hard Rock Hallelujah". Among their most famous songs are also "Devil Is a Loser", "Would You Love A Monster Man?" and "Biomechanic". The debut album, "Get Heavy", reached number one on the Finnish charts. Lordi has sold millions of records worldwide and continues to be one of the most popular heavy metal bands today.
