Death Hates His Job (Original Demo) Lyrics by Antony Kos

2018

[Verse 1]
Death is a household name
The most controversial star, but really, who could blame him?
Death never wanted the fame
He gets so much hate mail that he's built a mountain
[Verse 2]
Is Death really a boy? No one knows
Has he ever brought you joy? No one chose to answer
Death doesn't like the exposure
He gets real nervous 'round the necromancers
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Death doesn't like having fans
Death hates his job like a baguette hates France
And Death wants to give them a chance
But they always come up to him and cheer
[Chorus]
Slay me, slay me, slay me, slay me, slay me
Oh my god, slay me
Slay me, slay me, slay me, slay me, slay me
Oh my god, slay me
(Slay me)
[Verse 3]
Death will never tell us if there is an afterlife
That knowledge is exclusive to the people who have died
He's got a business card with your number on one side
On the other would be his name but he keeps it classified
[Verse 4]
You can call him up, but don't think he'll stay on the line
Pentagrams and Ouija boards annoy him all the time
Death is more intelligent than he gets credit for
Death can speak all languages; so more than "nevermore"
[Verse 5]
Death will do his job wherever he's allowed to go
What's he working for? It's been so long he doesn't know
Sometimes Death makes quick work with a purpose to fulfill
Sometimes he takes longer when he loves the ones he kills
[Pre-Chorus]
Death doesn't like having fans
Death hates his job, he doesn't want his stans
His meet-and-greets might always go as planned
But he hates it when he has to shorten people's lifespans when they say
[Chorus]
Slay me, slay me, slay me, slay me, slay me
Oh my god, slay me
Slay me, slay me, slay me, slay me, slay me
Oh my god, slay me
Slay me, slay me, slay me, slay me, slay me
Oh my god, slay me
Slay me, slay me, slay me, slay me, slay me
Oh my god, slay me
[Verse 6]
You can say you feel like Death, but realistically
No one understands him and he'd rather let it be
Death would rather linger somewhere outside of your thoughts
Death would rather you live life so well that he's forgotten
[Verse 7]
Some people love him and call him immortal
Death won't deny it, but he still feels responsible
Death is a hit man who can kill any hit man
But he still has to make time to make parents lose their children, yeah
[Verse 8]
Initially he might not seem like someone who'd be shy
But he doesn't like when people rush to meet him all the time
Death has no opinions on the world he's seen evolve
But there's one thing that he's certain of...
[Outro]
Death hates his job
Death hates his job
Death hates his job
Death hates his job
(But who else is gonna' do it?)
Death hates his job
