La Catrina lyrics

La Catrina has come back from the dead And is searching for the love she never had La Catrina has come back from the dead For the time of her life Alive she never had Sometimes she cries And sometimes she laughs On her face she wears impossible expressions And her dress is the dress That the ladies all wore In the days before the old revolution Dance in the spring Dance in the Sun, young girl Don't wait 'til you've become what I've become Don't wait 'til you're as dead as I am Dance now while you still can Dance in the spring Dance in the Sun, young girl Dance naked for a man While you still can It's too late when you're as dead as I am Dance your life Dance your life away Me and La Catrina are walking arm in arm She's so elegant, so handsome and so dead Me and La Catrina are dancing face to face It's the time of her life A life she never had See how she cries! See how she laughs! On her face she wears impossible expressions And her dress is the dress That the ladies all wore In the days before the old revolution La Catrina is dancing in her skeleton La Catrina with her mouldy dress and boots still on On her skull a single strand of hair Between the pelvic bones thin air And then she opens up her thighs And tells me what it's like to die And sings her love song Dance in the spring Dance in the Sun, young girl Don't wait 'til you've become what I've become Don't wait 'til you're as dead as I am Dance now while you still can Dance in the spring Dance in the Sun, young girl Dance naked for a man While you still can It's too late when you're as dead as I am Dance your life Dance your life away Dance in the spring Dance in the Sun, young girl Don't wait 'til you're as dead as I am Don't wait 'til you've become what I've become Dance now while you still can Dance in the spring Dance in the Sun, young girl Dance naked for a man While you still can It's too late when you're as dead as I am Dance your life Dance your life away
