Some dark evening, when my life is done,
I’ll rise again.
Soon I’ll try to eat my wife and son.
I’ll rise again.

Chorus: I’ll rise again, infected.
I’ll rise again.  (With no warning.)
When I’m dead, put a bullet through my head,
Or I’ll rise again.

When there’s shadows, always stay alert.
I’ll rise again.
I’ll be seeking others to convert.
I’ll rise again.

(Chorus)

Just be glad the world is still intact.
I’ll rise again.
No more colds or cancers to contract. 
I’ll rise again.

(Chorus)

When you shoot me, try to make it quick. 
I’ll rise again.
Please don’t stop to poke me with a stick. 
I’ll rise again.

(Chorus)
