The sound of the jungle is beating in my head But I know my mind ain't my own Why am I still walking when I know I should be dead Why won't it leave me alone My feet move in rhythm to the death dance But my heart stopped beating long ago I wanted to live but I had no chance My mind keeps moving even so I died 48 hours ago But I'm still walking around Something won't let me lie in peace There ain't no rest to be found The people are dancing around me The witchdoctor stands and he stares His magical powers have bound me The voodoo rites have ensnared Now they have made me a zombie I got to do what they say Now I am in their power There ain't no escape no way Won't you come and join in my death dance The powers of the old ones entwine You wanted to live you got no chance There ain't no place you can hide
