Time for a zombie turn is not a constant thing
Could be two seconds in and then they want your brains
But other times the toil drags on 'til it's too late
And you'll have to shoot your friend in the face
So please don't be a bother (hey)
And tell ev'ryone they had a bite (hey)
Don't care if they bit you on your bottom (hey)
Need to show us all before we die (hey)

Why does somebody always hide the pain, hide the pain?
Tactic never works, just adds a little tragedy
Need to let us know if you're doomed, how so
Don't need to be macho and hide the pain, hide the pain

You think "Man, my arm hurts, why make them hurt as well?
Don't want to send 'em down a spiral, that ain't swell"
But one cannot avoid the confrontation, mate
When you can no longer delay
And you'll munch on your lover (hey)
On your friends and fam'ly, Mum and Dad (hey)
A cure might soon be uncovered (hey)
But you'd best spend that time locked in a can (hey)

Why does somebody always hide the pain, hide the pain?
Always lets some jerk act out a little douchery
Forces the death blow onto folks they know
I just see zero point to hide the pain, hide the pain

It's a scene that we all know, can't we simply let it go?
Friggin' genre runnin' joke, get back to the zombies, zombies
Ev'rybody watchin' knows how the scene is gonna go
Sad in only theory, no proper pathos, this just blows (hey)

Why does somebody always hide the pain, hide the pain?
Once it made souls hurt, brought out the utter misery (hey)
Now it's just a trope we all know by rote
Always one utter dope who hides the pain, hides the pain (hey)
Hide the pain, hide the pain
Hide the pain, hide the pain (hey)
Doesn't help, you dope, to not let us know
It only makes things worse to hide the pain, hide the pain (hey)
