Kula Shaker - Grateful When You're Dead / Jerry Was There Lyrics






I'm painting, I paint a picture in your mind
If you're driving roads to suicide, I know you can sympathize
If your lover is a cheatin' and you're blinded by the pain
Your honeymoon in summer is a picnic in the rain

You'll be grateful when you're dead
Yeah you'll be grateful when you're dead
Ba, ba, ba...

I'm shaking, I shake the spear before your eyes
Well if you know your history, you will read between the lines
If you're waiting for a vision, to illuminate your mind
Oh leave this world of misery, oh leave it all behind

You'll be grateful when you're dead
Yeah you'll be grateful when you're dead
Ba, ba, ba...

When you're dead

You'll be grateful when you're dead
Yes you'll be grateful when you're dead
Ba, ba, ba...

Oh yeah
When you're dead

When you're dead

I'm telling you man, Jerry was there
I could feel his presence everywhere
Oh I'm telling you man, Jerry was there
You could feel his presence everywhere

Jerry was there
Jerry was there

Jerry was there
Jerry was there

I seen him man - looked me right in the face
Yeah

    One of the most underrated bands ever

    This song was my first words. When I was 10 months old, my dad would sing this to me to help me sleep. I woke up one morning and he walked in and I just sang “ba ba ba!” I was only a baby when this song came out. I’m 22 now, and it’s still my favourite song.

    Let's hope my Nephews' and Neices' generation will bring back brilliant music to the mainstream. Heard this in '96 and was WOWED.

    Grateful When You're Dead -  one of the best endings you can imagine.  The Cure "Never Enough" is every bit as good.
