[lyrics]
[verse 1] She died in my arms, her name was Lucille,
My sweetheart, victim of a ferris wheel.
She walked underneath and my heart felt sick,
(I watched it) punt off her head, like a touchdown kick.
(So then I) stood dressed in black by the side of her grave.
(and then I) cried out my eyeballs like I'd just gotten maced.
And as they lowered her down I thought of one crazy chance,
So now I'm asking Death a favor for the sake of romance.
[chorus] (I'm askin') Come on, Reaper,
Cut me some slack,
Reach into Heaven and,
Bring her back
Please, grim reaper,
We can't be apart,
Get you a shovel and,
Dig up my heart.
(I said,) come on, Reaper,
I'm down on my luck,
If you'll just bend the rules,
I'll owe you like twenty bucks.
Oh come on, please, Grim Reaper,
Bring my lover back to me.
[verse 2] I know there's no reason to listen to me,
I don't have collateral or currency,
(But then I) think I know what just might catch your eye,
(How 'bout I) maybe swap her for some other guy?
I could shoot up a laundromat, or blow up a bank.
I could drive across a schoolyard in a Sherman tank.
I could crash into the White House in a choo choo train,
If that's what it takes to see her again.
[chorus] (I'm askin') Come on, Reaper,
I'm down on my knees,
I'm beggin' and I'm cryin'
And I'm sayin' please.
Oh, Grim Reaper!
What will it take?
I'll shine up your car,
I'll bake you a cake.
(I said,) come on, Reaper,
Don't be a dick!
Just in and out the Pearly Gates
I'll make it quick.
Oh come on, please, Grim Reaper,
Bring my lover back to me.
[verse 3] (So then I) walked through the bone yard late last night,
Till a mystery appeared to me in eerie light,
A cloak made of darkness full of bones so slim,
I said now maybe I'm mistaken but you must be him.
I started to plead but then I felt a change
I glanced up at his perfect teeth and strong ribcage
I said I'm sorry I asked to go against God's plan.
But have you ever done the nasty with a mortal man?
[chorus] (I'm askin') Come on, Reaper,
Give it a try,
Whip off that cape,
And I'll loosen my tie.
Oh, Grim Reaper!
Let's not waste time.
I can see all your bones,
I can show you mine.
(I said,) come on, Reaper,
It's what I crave.
We can get right down and roll around
on her grave.
Oh come on, please, Grim Reaper,
Be my love eternally...
