Now That You're Dead

any help on the spoken intro meaning?

clearly, this is a modern necrophilic classic, contemporary with "cold ethyl" and "a little piece of heaven." sounds a bit like a sequel to "wake the dead."

i was shocked when they encored with this and "box of sharp objects" - the best new used song and the best all time used song. don't believe me? bert precursor ABOSO by saying "this is the best song ever written" (although the intro to ABOSO was the "smells like teen spirit" rift)

Spoken intro "I began to float Up, way above my body My brain's holding the grip of a giant vice (It was all very good) Floating higher and higher, a wonderful feeling" - Someone's comment on an out-of-body experiance, such as when near death.

Corrections: "Your not WITH Jesus Christ, your just gone" as in, you have no life after death. "How can it feel so right, when it's so WRONG" It sounds more like wrong, and this would make more sense, but if you got "right" from a lyric book i'd believe it.

As Sofa King said, it could about necrophilia (Sexual attraction to dead people), but The Used have never gone that far before, although that would be very cool. It might just be about the narrator's extreme hate for a person, they finally died, and he's so exited he has to confirm it himself.

Could be about his dead girlfriend and how he's still in love with her even though she's dead.

I kind of think it sounds like "How can it feel so right when it's so RIPE"

Bert really annunciates the line the final time he says it, and there's the hard T sound at the end of "How can it feel so righT," and that hard T sound is definitely missing from whatever the word is at the end of the line. But it also definitely sounds like "ri", not "wro," for that final word. So begins with "ri" and ends in something that is not "t."

I wish I could find a good picture of the lyric sheet. There's a scan of it on Discogs, but the resolution is so low that it's unreadable.
