Day of the Dead
Album: A: Enlightenment B: Endarkenment (Hint: There Is No C)
Day of the Dead
Sugar, skulls and marigolds
Flowers, thorns and blood
Say a prayer for each of us
Beneath the dust and mud
Everyday is the day of the dead
Everyday is the day of the dead
Thirsty ghosts and twisted bones
Petitions, shrines and feasts
Say a prayer for each of us
Whose souls have been released?
Everyday is the day of the dead
Everyday is the day of the dead
Banned saints and sweet dry bread
Candles, masks and bells
Say a prayer for each of us
Was put in heaven or in hell
RWH: electric slide, vocal
Rick Richards; drums, percussion
Billy Cassis: electric guitar, vocal in Spanish
