[Guitar Solo: Andy LaRocque]

[Verse 1]
I'm in a cold and lonely tomb
Surrounded by darkness in my newfound home
I'm not alone anymore, alone anymore
I'm looking back at yesterday
I do remember my escape and what I had to do
Had to do, had to do, had to do
Don't you see, don't you see, don't you see?

[Chorus]
Oh, heads on the wall
I'm looking at heads on the wall
Dead yet alive, heads on the wall
I'm looking at heads on the wall (Heads)

[Guitar Solo: Andy LaRocque]

[Verse 2]
Did you know, if you die in a graveyard
The soul can't escape if you lose your head?
But it lives on in your brain
In the brain, in your brain, in your brain
Don't you see, don't you see, don't you see?
[Chorus]
Oh, heads on the wall
I'm looking at heads on the wall
Dead yet alive, heads on the wall
I'm looking at heads on the wall

[Bridge 1]
Last night, when I climbed the cemetery gate
I saw a man digging in the ground
Working the late shift, it was the gravedigger
Jeremiah had worked here for years
Already had one foot in the grave
With my help we got in the other
I can't believe he wasn't stronger

[Guitar Solo: Herb Simonsen]

[Bridge 2]
Mary the hooker was coming to church
To let the reverend fill up her purse
Jesse Bell, may his soul rest in Hell
No one must find out, no one must tell

[Guitar Solo: Andy LaRocque]

[Chorus]
Heads on the wall
I'm looking at their heads on the wall
Dead yet alive, heads on the wall
And they're staring at me and me and me
[Outro]
No one comes and leaves again
I've got to make sure no one knows where I am
Especially that man, I remember
I can't get rid of those voices
Where, where
Why? Who's there?
I-I-I can't think
So much [?] so cold
Voices, voices in my head
