lyrics

Over My Dead Body
Angela Sheik, BMI

I said, “Over my dead body.”
I said, “Over my cold and rotting body can you take this from me. You can wait until I die, then try to pry it from my cold, dead fingers.” I said, “Just you try. Just try to take it from me. I will scratch you, I will bite you, I will cut you 'til you bleed. You may want but you can't have it. It's mine and you can't have it. I will fight you to the death, It's mine and you can't take it from me.”

He said, “If that's the way you want it, okay.
If that's the way you want it, have your way.”

I said, “You can't take this from me.” I said, “Don't you know I can't let this go? You take it and you will destroy me. Without it I am lost, without it I am empty. If you know so much then you should know, this is everything to me. I will scratch you, I will bite you, I will cut you 'til you bleed. You may want, but you can't have it. It's mine and you can't have it. I will fight you to the death, It's mine and you can't take it from me.”

He said, “Child, if that's the way you want it, okay.
If that’s the way you want it, have it your way.”
