lyrics

I moved out of home and into the slum for a lurk
I want to be working class but I don’t want to work
When you do nothing you can never take the time off
Daddy set up a trust fund for me why would I stop him (I’m a dandy immortal)

Chucked out of college, my photo was plastered all over
Not allowed on the premises – famous at last it just shows ya
All art college taught me was marry a rich girl and use her
I already married one, I married yours truly (I’m a dandy immortal)

CHORUS
Conquer death, death in style
Conquer death, death in style
I’m a work of art and I’ll never die
Conquer death, death in style

Sex is a gutless surrender to death and decay
Shit is the smell of your death and it won’t go away
I embraced mortality, smothered myself in excrement
The intellectual insight caused an erection (so I tossed myself off to)

CH

(I’m a dandy immortal)

I gambled on Wall Street, see me dressed up to the 9’s
All the money I made’s more exciting than all it can buy
If I leave nothing of worth, least I’m dressed for the part
I went to the Phillipines for my final statement in Art (I crucified myself)

CH


(I’m a dandy immortal)
