All Zombies Go To Heaven Lyrics 3rd Place #Fedivision 2024
~ #Dgar
I got clouds in my head and I’m feeling kinda dizzy.
My eyes kinda hurt and my hair is all frizzy.
This jacket smells bad and I stepped in something squishy.
I’m feeling kinda hungry, so I gotta get busy.
Walking to the beat and everything is gritty.
Boarded up houses but the gardens look pretty.
Get with the crew and we start to get giddy.
We’re drawn down the street by the promise of the city.
I may fall today,
But I don’t need no confession.
It doesn’t hurt to pray,
But I’ve still got my depression.
Searching for some brains,
It’s kinda my obsession.
I think it’s safe to say,
All zombies go to heaven.
You can see the meat hanging out to dry.
They think they’re safe and believe that lie.
But behind their walls they start to cry.
They see us coming and we won’t die.
We are the hoard and we grow every day.
Trying to make it in a world decayed.
We can’t talk. Got nothing to say,
Paying the price that we all have to pay.
I may fall today,
But I don’t need no confession.
It doesn’t hurt to pray,
But I’ve still got my depression.
Searching for some brains,
It’s kinda my obsession.
I think it’s safe to say,
All zombies go to heaven.
All zombies go to heaven.
I may fall today,
But I don’t need no confession.
It doesn’t hurt to pray,
But I’ve still got my depression.
Searching for some brains,
It’s kinda my obsession.
I think it’s safe to say,
All zombies go to heaven.
All zombies go to heaven.
All zombies,
Go to heaven.

Hey, so this is kind of a weird question, but I’ve never asked before: #FediVision is coming back in May 2024. Would anyone be interested in making a song with me for the contest?
I love to sing and write lyrics, and can kind of put together a skeleton of a song together with my digital keyboard, and LMMS / Ardour?

Who’s excited? #Fedivision
Fedivision is a song contest among musical artists here on the Fediverse, in the spirit of Eurovision, but the countries are made up and there are no prizes for the winner, just bragging rights.
The entries just became public yesterday, so you have a whole week to listen and vote! https://fedivision.party/
I didn’t enter, but I have been enjoying listening to all the tracks and am having a hard time deciding which to vote for. You get 3 votes this year!
🤣 I found out entirely too late, so nothing from me. Next year, however, will be a different story. waggles eyebrows
(assuming we, as a species, survive that long)
My #Fedivision shortlist – some great tracks here (in order of appearance):
RUGG @sknob – fun and on-topic
MOUL @MOULE – Join the Webellion!
INTK @MTP – beautiful, would love to remix this
COBA @cobalt – cheerful, catchy, and Finnish
CYBE @revengeday – relentless
EATW @whoosh – shades of Evanescence
FOSS @MyLoFy – squeaky-clean retro-pop
BKTH @defaultmediatransmitter – tangerine dream in the jungle
DIZZ @dgar – beastie boys with zombies?!
NOTH @keefmarshall – great, but could win on title alone
And by the way.
By now, at least 32* artists have publicly released their #Fedivision2024 song already. For my own use (my shopping list), I keep track of the releases in this clip:
(*) This number will change as I update the collection. I'll check for new releases now and then, but please, if you're a #fedivision contestant who released the track without me noticing it, please let me know. Thank you in advance 💚
