Tears to Shed
[MAGGOT]
What does that whispy little brat have that you don't have double?

[BLACK WIDOW]
She can't hold a candle to the beauty of your smile

[CORPSE BRIDE]
How about a pulse?

[MAGGOT]
Overrated by a mile

[BLACK WIDOW]
Overbearing

[MAGGOT]
Overblown

[MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW]
If he only knew the you that we know

[CORPSE BRIDE]
(sigh)

[BLACK WIDOW]
And that silly little creature isn't wearing his ring
[MAGGOT]
And she doesn't play piano

[MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW]
Or dance

[MAGGOT]
Or sing

[MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW]
No she doesn't compare

[CORPSE BRIDE]
But she still breathes air

[BLACK WIDOW]
Who cares?

[MAGGOT]
Unimportant

[BLACK WIDOW]
Overrated

[MAGGOT]
Overblown
[MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW]
If only he could see
How special you can be
If he only knew the you that we know

[CORPSE BRIDE]
If I touch a burning candle I can feel no pain
If you cut me with a knife it's still the same
And I know her heart is beating
And I know that I am dead
Yet the pain here that I feel
Try and tell me it's not real
For it seems that I still have a tear to shed

[MAGGOT]
The sure redeeming feature
From that little creature
Is that she's alive

[BLACK WIDOW]
Overrated

[MAGGOT]
Overblown

[BLACK WIDOW]
Everybody know that's just a temporary state
Which is cured very quickly when we meet our fate
[MAGGOT]
Who cares?

[BLACK WIDOW]
Unimportant

[MAGGOT]
Overrated

[BLACK WIDOW]
Overblown

[MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW]
If only he could see
How special you can be
If he only knew the you that we know

[CORPSE BRIDE]
If I touch a burning candle I can feel no pain
In the ice or in the sun it's all the same
Yet I feel my heart is aching
Though it doesn't beat it's breaking
And the pain here that I feel
Try and tell me it's not real
I know that I am dead
Yet it seems that I still have some tears to shed
