Name: Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things
Duration: P00H02M40S
Description: This particular version of the track also appeared on The Mysterious Deadbeats - Songs To Die For EP. It's actually just a hastily thrown together demo, and sounds like it! It was later subsequently re-recorded for the album 'Kiss of Death', but somehow we have always preferred this rather chaotic sounding version.

lyrics

Children shouldn’t play with dead things
Get this into your head
Children shouldn’t play with dead things
At night stay tucked in bed
Children shouldn’t play with dead things
Don’t matter if you’re paid
Children shouldn’t play with dead things
Some kids are easy led

Remember mamma said
Show respect for the dead
Don’t ask Orville to play
Just let him rest
Or with your life you’ll pay
