Zombie
C.J. And The Casuals Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you call me
She's braindead
Like a zombie
Smash my windshield to be naughty
Emotional za-Zombie
Say you're love sick
When you call me
Like a zombie
Smash my windshield
To be naughty
When you find out I'm not sorry
Get away from me don't follow
Do it all again tomorrow
Your love is tsunami
Emotional za-Zombie
Got barbed wire on my fence, I don't know where she went
Punching my door at 3 AM
I wish we never meet again
You switch the voices in your head
Maybe I'd be better off dead
Double faces of the faceless
Please make my mind erase it
Say you're love sick
When you call me
She's brain dead
Like a zombie
Smash my windshield
To be naughty
When you find out I'm not sorry
Get away from me don't follow
Do it all again tomorrow
Your love is tsunami
Emotional za-Zombie
Got your hooks in my back
I can never relax
I don't care about your sign
Astrological decline
You switch the voices in your head
Maybe I'd be better off dead
Double faces of the faceless
You make me feel so jaded
Say you're love sick
When you call me
She's brain dead
Like a zombie
Smash my windshield
To be naughty
When you find out I'm not sorry
Get away from me don't follow
Do it all again tomorrow
Your love is tsunami
Emotional za-Zombie
Say you're love sick
When you call me
She's brain dead
Like a zombie
Smash my windshield
To be naughty
When you find out I'm not sorry
Get away from me don't follow
Do it all again tomorrow
Your love is tsunami
Emotional za-Zombie
The lyrics to C.J. And The Casuals's song Zombie depict a tale of a supernatural resurrection that takes place amidst darkness and dust. The song starts with the mention of putrefaction, which is a process of decay due to the action of bacteria and fungi. The smell of decay is usually associated with death and the cursed fate that follows. The lyrics imply that this curse has taken hold of the buried body and it is now rising from the ground in the form of a succubus - a supernatural entity that seduces men in their sleep. The imagery of the earthen rust adds to the desolate environment in which the resurrection is happening, and the use of the term "Heresis dea" alludes to this being a divine act against nature.
The second stanza describes how the resurrection has transformed the once majestic queen into a skeleton exposed to the elements. The mention of the moon that shines an "evil blinding light" adds to the eerie atmosphere that the lyrics seek to create. The final stanzas describe the resurrection in greater detail, with the queen rising from the dirt in a ghostly form. She is described as shapeshifting, but currently, she is "rigid, stiff, and pale", which is reminiscent of the characteristics of a zombie. The refrain of "Zombie Queen" repeatedly throughout the song highlights the singer of the lyrics and underscores the idea of the resurrection being an abnormal event.
