Undead Today
(To the tune of, and with apologies to, YMCA by the village people)
Young Man, there's no need to stay down
(I said) Young Man, get your corpse off the ground
(have a) New plan, become undead right now
there’s no need to be unhappy.
Young man, there’s a place you can go
(I said) Young man, when your blood doesn’t flow
(you can) stay there, and I’m sure you will find
You can leave your old life behind.
Come join the ranks of the undead today!
Come join my army of undead today!
We've got everything for undead to enjoy
You can pillage, maim and destroy!
Come join the ranks of the undead today!
Come join my army of undead today!
You’ll be one of the lads, we will treat you so well
Just don’t worry about the smell!
Young man, are you listening to me,
(I said) young man, this is necromancy
You’ve got power, you can fulfil your dreams
But you’ve got to know this one thing
No man, does it all by himself
(I said) neither does a dwarf or an elf
(you need) allies, and a place you can stay
And we’ll hide you from the wild fey.
Come join the ranks of the undead today!
Come join my army of undead today!
We've got everything for undead to enjoy
You can pillage, maim and destroy!
Come join the ranks of the undead today!
Come join my army of undead today!
You’ll be one of the lads, we will treat you so well
Just don’t worry about the smell!
Zombie - don't get tired or cold
(as a) Zombie, you'll be fearless and bold
(as a) Zombie, you won't feel any pain
Just a hun-ger for liv-ing brain
Vampire - don't grow old and ugly
(as a) Vampire, you can still be sexy
(as a) Vampire, you can stay up all night
You don't sleep, just watch for day-light
Come join the ranks of the undead today!
Come join my army of undead today!
We've got everything for undead to enjoy
You can pillage, maim and destroy!
Come join the ranks of the undead today!
Come join my army of undead today!
You’ll be one of the lads, we will treat you so well
Just don’t worry about the smell!
Young man, I was once in your place
(I said) I was, getting stabbed in the face
(Now I’m) Undead, I find I can stand tall
And shout ‘FOOLS! I WILL KILL YOU ALL!’
Join me, and we'll conquer this land
(why not) Join me, and my undead warband
(we can) rule all, from our scary black towers
and the world is MINE! - I mean ours.
Come join the ranks of the undead today!
Come join my army of undead today!
We've got everything for undead to enjoy
You can pillage, maim and destroy!
Come join the ranks of the undead today!
Come join my army of undead today!
You’ll be one of the lads, we will treat you so well
Just don’t worry about the smell!
Undead today…. HOORAY!
