Robyn Hitchcock & the Egyptians

Robyn Hitchcock & the Egyptians was an English rock band led by singer-songwriter Robyn Hitchcock. Formed in the 1980s, the band was known for its distinctive blend of psychedelic and folk rock music. Robyn Hitchcock's surreal and poetic lyrics, combined with the band's jangly guitars and catchy melodies, garnered them a loyal cult following. They released several albums throughout the 1980s and 1990s before disbanding in the late 1990s. more »

When I was dead, I wore a strong perfume
When I was dead, I never left the room
And I saw the apples hanging, like moments in the orchard
But falling into action; the moment soon is over; no returns

When I was dead, I wasn't interested in sex
I didn't even care what happened next
I was free as a penny whistle, and silent as the glove
I wasn't me to speak of, just a thousand ancient feelings
That vanished into nothing; into love

When I was dead, somebody took my hand (When I was dead)
I couldn't see his face; I took his hand (I couldn't see)
And the Devil asked me to supper; he said
"Careful with the spoons!"
And God said: "Oh, ignore him! I've got all your albums"
I said: "Yes, but who's got all the tunes?"

When I was dead
When I was dead
When I was dead
When I was dead
