Carve my name, I love you, Johnny
On the summer house stair
And when we both forget this place
My name will still be there (still be there, still be there)
Im-Im-Im-Im
Mor-mor-mor-mor
Tality
I'm-Im-Im-Im
Mor-mor-mor-mor
Tality
Sing a song, I'll show you how
We copy down its music
You won't have time to hear it now
But later (later), you can use it (you can use it)
You can use it (you can use it) use it
Im-Im-Im-Im
Mor-mor-mor-mor
Tality
Im-Im-Im-Im

Make me a baby, make me a star
Leave my coffin slightly ajar
I need to come back (I need to come back)
So give me a gimmick (so give me a gimmick)
Write on my plaque (write on my plaque)
I'll be back in a minute (I'll be back in a minute)
Im-Im-Im-Im
Mor-mor-mor
Im-Im-Im-Im
Mor-mor-mor
Im-Im-Im-Im
Mor-mor-mor-mortality
Time to go will always find you
Hanging on to where you've been
But if you leave your hat behind
You'll always (always)
Get back in (get back in, get back in)
Im-Im-Im-Im
Mor-mor-mor-mor
Tality
Im-Im-Im-Im
Mor-mor-mor-mor
Tality
Make me a baby, make me a star
Leave my coffin slightly ajar
I need to come back (I need to come back)
So give me a gimmick (so give me a gimmick)
Write on my plaque (write on my plaque)
I'll be back in a minute (I'll be back now)
Im-Im-Im-Im
Mor-mor-mor
Im-Im-Im-Im
Mor-mor-mor
Im-Im-Im-Im
Mor-mor-mortality
Say I need to come back (I need to come back)
So give me a gimmick (so give me a gimmick)
Write on my plaque (write on my plaque)
I'll be back in a minute (I'll be back now)
