Dm              
In the afterlife
                            A             
You could be headed for the serious strife
Now you make the scene all day                 - Chorus
                         Dm         
But tomorrow there'll be Hell to pay
Intro       Dm      A
Chorus x2
People listen attentively
I mean about future calamity[A]
I used to think the idea was obsolete
Until I heard the old man stamping his [Dm]feet
Chorus
Instrumental
This is a [Dm]place where eternally
Fire is applied to the body[A]
Teeth are extruded and bones are ground
Then baked into cakes which are passed around[Dm]
Chorus
Instrumental
[Dm]Beauty, talent, fame, money, refinement
Top skill and [A]brain
But all the things you try to hide
Will be revealed on the [Dm]other side.
Chorus
Instrumental
[Dm]Now the D and the A and the M and the N
and the A and the T and the [A]I-O-N            x2
Lose your face, lose your name
Then get fitted for a [Dm]suit of flame
