Zombie Lane


(to the tune of Paul McCartney's "Penny Lane")

Zombie Lane there is a zombie ripping arms apart
And eating brains from every head that he has known
And all the people who are too slow
Become lunch, you know

On the corner is a banker with a motorcar
The zombie children sink their teeth into his back
He wasn’t ready for their attack
Now he screams in pain
Very strange

Zombie Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
There beneath the radiated skies
I sit, and try to stay alive

In Zombie Lane there is a fireman raising up his axe
Against the undead stalking figure of the Queen
“Sorry, mum” -- and snick!
Her head goes bouncing
Off his clean machine
Well, it used to be

Zombie Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
Walking corpses eating entrails just like pies
What a rude surprise

Behind the shelter in the middle of a roundabout
A pretty nurse has got Bruce Campbell’s chainsaw on her side
The flying limbs form quite a pile
She is full of pride

Zombie Lane the barber cuts his throat disgustingly
Before the zombie horde can get to him
Then the fireman rushes in
“Sorry dad,” he says
Then he runs away
It’s a lousy day

Zombie Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
There beneath the radiated skies
I sit, and try to stay alive
Zombie Lane is in my ears and in my eyes
I stand beneath the radiated skies
I refuse to die

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo Song



(to the tune of Led Zeppelin's 'Immigrant Song')

A-ah-ahh-ah, ah-ah-ahh-ah!
She comes from the land of Ikea stores,
Bergman films and polluted fiords.
Advertising gods! Go sell this chick to new fans …..
Movies out the ass! Video games! Action figures!
Can you say ka-ching?
Cyberpunk, smokes too much …
Dragon tattoo from her neck down to her tush!
Ah-ah-ahh-ah, ah-ah-ahh-ah!
She comes from a land that’s too freaking cold,
Never ever smiles, got a tortured soul.
She’s so fine, she’ll break your spine,
And debug your Unix code before the night is through.
Fanboys love that she’s bisexual too!
Why stop with just three movies? It ain’t that big a chore!
Our only goal will be to sell some more!
She set her dad on fire, killed Nazis and rapists too
It’s too bad the author’s dead—we owe all our cash to you!
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ahh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
