I know, another song by The Heavy, right? Just press play and you'll understand why. Their latest album THE GLORIOUS DEAD is a factory of sassy, soulful and boisterous rock songs. This kind of uncompromising bands are getting hard to find in this day and age. The Heavy both have an organic, guitar-based thing going, yet they are thoroughly unafraid to experiment with soul and electronic. CAN'T PLAY DEAD is some serious boogie for your Sunday morning. It'll put you in a good mood and make you dance in your kitchen with a coffee mug in your hand. You're welcome!
Well, hell she walks like zombie
Talk too cold
Live in a graveyard
Like the one I call home
And when she wish riger mortis
On my soul
I don't wanna tell her
But she gotta be told
Because she talk like crazy
Making my bed up
Messing with the future
When she know I got to get up
Cannot break this silence
Fuck my momentum
I ain't gonna play
Because I know just where she send 'em
To the grave!
To grave!
And I say
I just can't play dead
I just can't play dead
So I got one for my money
Two for my soul
Three times, I begging
Get me outta this hole!
I see her roll her sleeve up
Looking for a beat up
Telling you the things to feed the flavor in your ear
But when she spit that venom
Just like a viper
She evil to the core
But then she know that's what you like
Got the shit on eleven
Serving up a tension
She cooking in her kitchen
Seasoning, before she send 'em
To the grave!
To grave!
And I say
I just can't play dead
I just can't play dead
Because she talk like crazy
Making my bed up
Messing with the future
When she know I got to get up
Cannot break this silence
Fuck my momentum
I ain't gonna play
Because she send 'em
To the grave!
To grave!
Like I said
I just can't play dead
I just can't play dead
