Zombie Girl – English Lyrics

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

[Instrumental]

You would do all the things

That make me hate you fool

I would strangle you

If I had a rope or two

It wasn't always like this

You used to make me smile

But now that time is gone

You've been away far too long

When our world was torn apart

By the undead

I was lost to the hunger

In my head

It's not like I want to have a taste

Already dead, so why would I care?

I just want to chase

And rip your face

This got nothing to do

With your brains

Atrocious, Zombielicous

That's what i'm aiming for

I don't feel so smart

Brains, brains, brains, brains, brains!

It wasn't always like this

I wasn't this hostile

But now my mind is gone

You've been away far too long

Struck by a pain inside my heart

It fills me with dread

I was glad to see you here

With the dead

It's not like I want to have a taste

Already dead, so why would I care?

I just want to chase

And rip your face

This got nothing to do

With your brains

[Instrumental]

(When our world was torn apart)

(Struck by a pain inside my heart)

It's not like I want to have a taste

Already dead, so why would I care?

I just want to chase

And rip your face (heheheHEHEEHE)

This got nothing to do (HEHEHEHEHAHAHA)

It's not like I want to have a taste

Already dead, so why would I care?

I just want to chase

And rip your face

It's got nothing to do

It's not like I want to have a taste

Already dead, so why would I care?

I just want to chase

And rip your face

This got nothing to do with your brains
