The Lyrics

I thought that death was always the end of fairy tales,
Meant for everyone, including me,
Death was out to get me,
At least so it seemed,,
Death was out to get me in my dreams

And I died that night,
Now I'm the grim reaper,
Not a trace, of my body today,
I am undead,
I'm the grim reaper I can kill people if I tried.

I thought death was more or less an ending thing,
Seems the more I killed, the less I thought
What the use in trying,
All I get is pain,
When saying that I have no brains.

And I died that night,
Now I'm the grim reaper,
Not a trace, of my body today,
I am undead,
I'm the grim reaper I can kill people if I tried.

Death was out to get me,
At least so it seemed,
The grim reaper was out to get me in my dreams

And I died that night,
Now I'm the grim reaper,
Not a trace, of my body today,
I am undead,
I'm the grim reaper I can kill people if I tried.

And I died that night,
Now I'm the grim reaper,
Not a trace, of my body today,
I 'm a grim reaper,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
I 'm a grim reaper yeah (I'm the grim reaper)
I'm the grim reaper yeah (I'm the grim reaper)

Very funny. I think the up-beat, happy feel of the original lends an extra bit of humor when sung about the Grim Reaper.
