Zombie
DaPa DeeP Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Could be kinda gory
Far from boring
We'd meet at a post
Apocalypse
Yeah, I'd be slowly walking
In a group stalking you
You'd be the only man alive
Could not resist
Then all of your friends
They'd try to kill us
But only because
They'd be jealous
That our love is deeper than Edward and Bella's
Oh, if I were a zombie
I'd never eat your brain
I'd just want your heart
Yeah, I'd want your heart
I'd just want your heart
Yeah, ooh
If I were a zombie
I'd never eat your brain
I'd just want your heart
Yeah, I'd want your heart
I'd just want your heart
'Cause I want 'cha
You'd be hiding in
A second floor apartment
Knocking all the stairs down
To save your life
From the undead
Double barrel shotgun
Taking out the slow ones
Then you'd see the passion burning in my eye
And I'd keep my head
Then all of your friends
They'd try to kill us
But only because
They'd be jealous
That our love is deeper than Edward and Bella's
Oh, if I were a zombie
I'd never eat your brain
I'd just want your heart
Yeah, I'd want your heart
I'd just want your heart
Yeah, ooh
If I were a zombie
I'd never eat your brain
I'd just want your heart
Yeah, I'd want your heart
I'd just want your heart
'Cause I want 'cha
And I'd I try
Not to bite and infect you
Because
I respect you too much
That's why I'd wait until we got married
Oh, and our happiest days would be spent
Picking off all your friends
And they'd see
A love this deep won't stay buried
If I were a zombie
I'd never eat your brain
I'd just want your heart
Yeah, I'd want your heart
I'd just want your heart
Yeah, ooh
If I were a zombie
I'd never eat your brain
I'd just want your heart
Yeah, I'd want your heart
I'd just want your heart
'Cause I want 'cha
The song "Zombie" by DaPa DeeP explores a love story between a zombie and a human survivor in a post-apocalyptic world. The lyrics depict the zombie's desire for the survivor's heart rather than their brain, which is a common trope in the zombie genre. The chorus repeats the line "I'd just want your heart", emphasizing the zombie's love for the survivor.
The versus paint a picture of the apocalypse where the zombie is slowly stalking the survivor, who is the only human alive that they cannot resist. The zombie's attraction to the survivor is so deep that they would wait to get married before infecting them. However, the survivor's friends try to kill them, not understanding the depth of love between the zombie and the survivor.
The song uses humor to subvert expectations of the typical zombie-human relationship in media. It presents a unique and creative take on the zombie genre, showcasing that love can be found in unexpected places and that anyone can find true love, even in the midst of an apocalypse.
