Pintandwefall Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you don't believe me I can swear that every word is true
I met this Zombie in a pub called "Trombi"
And he told me his lifestory
Neverminding his appearance (the customers had fleed to terrace)
He started talking, made me nodding
And I could do nothing but listen
Because he was so odd, so hear me
Zombie behave
Howcome did you lose your babe
Three times you have yourself betrayed
She even has the same sized shoe
Is this what you are oughtta do?

He said that "The thing is that, I used to be an unshaped prat
And I did really much enjoy
making people feel flat, oh boy!
But once I met my little Janice, I lost my cool and went to panic
She was a beautie and my duty
was to let her down, I would have made her frown
I even ate my leg to proof it"

Zombie behave
Howcome did you eat your leg
Three times you have yourself betrayed




She even has the same sized shoe
Is this what you are oughtta do?
