Gorilla - The Handsome Family

Magilla Gorilla and Phyllis Diller

Having lunch with a serial killer

Talking about that pain in your heart

Talking about a pretty blue scar

Talking just to keep calm

Phyllis wasn’t feeling well

She’d forgotten if she had fell

The sweet gorilla took her hand

Noticed she’d lost her wedding band but

He was scared to tell her

I’m afraid to die

I wanna die

The killer said I’m of foam

And I can’t remember where I put my comb

If that don’t give me the right to cry

What if I told you I kissed the sky?

Would you mind if I killed you?

Magilla remembered being young

And how he used to fold his tongue

Then he remembered being old

And how his lips and feet were cold, but still he wanted

To live forever
