Night of the Living Dead
G. Love And Special Sauce · Electric Mile [2001]
My future starts when I see the first light of day
When I woke up today, I didn't really feel ok
I wasn't myself, I couldn't be no one else
Night of the living dead, that's what my momma said
That's what she said, don't let them in your head
If you want to hang around
Please don't you bring me down
A zombie will steal your soul
Don't let them take control
Control, control, control
Night of the living dead, that's what my momma said
That's what she said, don't let them in your head
Do you know who you are?
I know who I am
Don't know where I'm going
But I can tell you where I've been
Where I am right now
Is where I want to be
Nothing you can do or say
Can take me away from me
Night of the living dead, that's what my momma said
That's what she said, don't let them in your head
NO NO
