  • Love me cancerously
    Like a salt-sore soaked in the sea
    High-maintenance means
    You're a gluttonous queen
    Narcissistic and mean

    Kill me romantically
    Fill my soul with vomit
    Then ask me for a piece of gum
    Bitter and dumb
    You're my sugarplum
    You're awful, I love you!

    She moves through moonbeams slowly
    She knows just how to hold me
    And when her edges soften
    Her body is my coffin
    I know she drains me slowly
    She wears me down to bones in bed
    Must be the sign on my head
    That says, oh
    Love me dead! Love me dead!

    You're a faith-healer on T.V.
    You're an office park without any trees
    Corporate and cold
    Gushing for gold
    Leave me alone

    You suck so passionately
    You're a parasitic, psycho, filthy creature
    Finger-bangin' my heart
    You call me up drunk
    Does the fun ever start?
    You're hideous and sexy!

    She moves through moonbeams slowly
    She knows just how to hold me
    And when her edges soften
    Her body is my coffin
    I know she drains me slowly
    She wears me down to bones in bed
    Must be the sign on my head
    That says, oh
    Love me dead! Love me dead!

    Wow! Uh!

    Love me cancerously
    How's your new boy?
    Does he know about me?
    You've got the mark of the beast
    You're born of a jackal! You're beautiful!

    She moves through moonbeams slowly
    She knows just how to hold me
    And when her edges soften
    Her body is my coffin
    I know she drains me slowly
    She wears me down to bones in bed
    Must be the sign on my head
    That says, oh
    Love me dead! Love me dead!

    Oh, Love me dead! Writer/s: ANDREW VOLPE, MARSHALL FANCIULLO, MATTHEW PALERMO, TIMOTHY CONVY, TIMOTHY FERRELL
