Lyrics for Day Of The Dead by Dave Stewart from the single Out Of Reach – B-Side

Woo Woo ooh Wooh
Woo Woo ooh Wooh

What have I done now
I ended up sleeping on the beach somehow
Woke up with a funeral song in my head
I was sleeping with someobody I didn’t know he was dead
And the bells of the Catholic church they rung
Another baby born, another young man hung
I picked myself up, started heading south
A gun in my boots, and sand in my mouth
I Said

Woo Woo ooh Wooh
Woo Woo ooh Wooh

The road was long
All I had with my was this funeral song
I started singing to the skeleton trees
There fingers clicking in the slick summer breeze
And the birds circled overhead singing your out of luck this is the day of the dead

All I could say was don’t worry about me, your just bird, I’m part of history

Woo Woo ooh Wooh
Woo Woo ooh Wooh

I sing

Woo Woo ooh Wooh
Woo Woo ooh Wooh

Oh the sound of the drum, sound smooth and hollow like the barrell of the gun.

It leads me down to the cetnre of town to the dying circus and the runaway clowns
And here I am on sevenreet waiting for the lady I’m supposed to meet.
She’s got a message from the Blue Black Crow,
She says keep on living theres so much you don’t know

Woo Woo ooh Wooh
Woo Woo ooh Wooh

Theres So Much You Don’t Know

Woo Woo ooh Wooh
Woo Woo ooh Wooh

Theres nohting you can’t find out

Woo Woo ooh Wooh
Woo Woo ooh Wooh
