D.O.A. Lyrics by Morticia

D.O.A.

1988

[Intro]
Good evening, ad welcome to the six o'clock news. I'm Earl Root, and topping the headlines: the start of some very promising careers ended abruptly as tragedy struck the rock band Morticia. Leaving earlier this evening from Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport, their private plane collided with a small commuter aircraft. The only survivor of the crash was pronounced DEAD ON ARRIVAL...
I remember - we were flying low
And we hit something in the air
Laying here lookin at thе ceiling
Someone lays a sheet across my chеst
Something warm is flowing down my fingers
Pain is flowing all through my back
I try to move my arm and there's no feeling
And when I look, I see there's nothing there
The face beside me stopped, totally bleeding
The girl I knew has such a distant stare
I remember - we were flying low
And we hit something in the air
I remember - we were flying low
And we hit something in the air
Then I looked straight at the attendant
His face as pale as it can be
He bends and whispers something softly
He said there's no chance for me
I remember - we were flying low
And we hit something in the air
I remember - we were flying low
And we hit something in the air
Life is flowing out of my body
Pain flows out with my blood
The sheets are red and moist where I'm lying
God in Heaven, teach me how to die
I remember - we were flying low
And we hit something in the air
I remember - we were flying low
And we hit something in the air
