Corpse Bride Soundtrack Lyrics: Tears to Shed Lyrics

MAGGOT
What does that whispy little brat have that you don't have double?
BLACK WIDOW
She can't hold a candle to the beauty of your smile
CORPSE BRIDE
How about a pulse?
MAGGOT
Overrated by a mile
BLACK WIDOW
Overbearing
MAGGOT
Overblown
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW
If he only knew the you that we know
CORPSE BRIDE(sigh)
BLACK WIDOW
And that silly little creature isn't wearing his ring
MAGGOT
And she doesn't play piano
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW
Or dance
MAGGOT
Or sing
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW
No she doesn't compare
CORPSE BRIDE
But she still breathes air
BLACK WIDOW
Who cares?
MAGGOT
Unimportant
BLACK WIDOW
Overrated
MAGGOT
Overblown
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW
If only he could see How special you can beIf he only knew the you that we know
CORPSE BRIDE
If I touch a burning candle I can feel the painIf you cut me with a knife it's still the sameAnd I know her heart is beatingAnd I know that I am deadYet the pain here that I feelTry and tell me it's not realFor it seems that I still have a tear to shed
MAGGOT
The sure redeeming featureFrom that little creatureIs that she's alive
BLACK WIDOW
Overrated
MAGGOT
Overblown
BLACK WIDOW
Everybody know that's just a temporary stateWhich is cured very quickly when we meet our fate
MAGGOT
Who cares?
BLACK WIDOW
Unimportant
MAGGOT
Overrated
BLACK WIDOW
Overblown
MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW
If only he could seeHow special you can beIf he only knew the you that we know
CORPSE BRIDE
If I touch a burning candle I can feel no painIn the ice or in the wun it's all the sameYet I feel my heart is acheingThough it doesn't beat it's breakingAnd the pain here that I feelTry and tell me it's not realI know that I am deadYet it seems that I still have some tears to shed
