lyrics

SHRIVEL UP AND DIE

Doug and Greg Benson
May, 1993


I thought our love would never end
Wrong, wrong, wrong.
I thought that we were blessed by Cupid
Stupid, stupid, stupid.

If only I could call you
I’m sure I would enthrall you
You know I’m not a polar bear
Won’t push you down and maul you.

You left me in the wild
I sit alone and cry
I’m nothing but a starving child
Feed me or I’ll shrivel up and die.

CHORUS:
Shrivel up and die,
Shrivel up and die,
I’m just the kind of guy
Who will shrivel up and die.
(repeat)

Might chase you down and tail you
Might fold you up and mail you
And though we’re not together
Sure wish that I could nail you.

You punched me in the nose
And stuck a hatpin in my eye
You made our love a dying rose
Plant me or I’ll shrivel up and die.

-- Instrumental Break --

“Telephone”
“It’s for you!”

CHORUS:
Shrivel up and die,
Shrivel up and die,
I’m just the kind of guy
Who will shrivel up and die.
(repeat)
