"Remains of the Day"

This is how "Remains of the Day" goes in Spider-Man and the Corpse Bride.

[In the Land of the Dead, Victor and the others wake up]

Alfred: New arrivals.

Emily: They must've fainted. Are you alright?

Nova: What happened?

Alfred: By Jove, man. Looks like we've got ourselves breathers.

Mrs. Plum: Do any of them have dead brothers?

Skeleton Boy: They're still soft.

[Victor and the others get up]

General Bonesapart: A toast, then! [drinks a pint] To the newlyweds and to our special guests.

Spider-Man: Newlyweds?

Crimson Dynamo: Special guests?

Power Man: What's going on?

Emily: In the woods, Victor said his vows so perfectly.

White Tiger: Oh, Victor, you idiot! Your vows woke up a dead woman!

Victor Van Dort: They did?

Power Man: They worked. [sees a head waiter named Paul] We've got company.

Paul: Bonjour! Coming through, coming through. My name is Paul, I am the head waiter. I will be creating your wedding feast.

Maggot: Wedding feast. I'm salivated.

Spider-Man: Wow!

Emily: [slaps her eye] Maggots. [giggles]

Nova: Okay, that's it! [powers up] We want questions now!

General Bonesapart: Answers. I think you mean "Answers."

Nova: Thank you, yeah, answers. [to Emily] We need answers. What's going on here? Where are we? Who are you?

Emily: Well, that's kind of a long story.

Bonejangles: What a story it is. A tragic tale of romance, passion, and murder most foul!

General Bonesapart: This is gonna be good.

Bonejangles: Hit it, boys.

Iron Fist: This should be interesting.

[Lights turn green as a skeleton plays a piano]

**Bonejangles:**

Hey! Give me a listen you corpses of cheer

At least those of you who still got an ear

I'll tell you a story that'll make a skeleton cry

Of our own jubiliciously lovely Corpse Bride

**Chorus:**

Die, die, we all pass away

But don't wear a frown cause it's really okay

You might try and hide

And you might try and pray

But we all end up the remains of the day

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah

**Bonejangles:**

Well, our girl was a beauty known for miles around

Til a mysterious horned stranger came into town

He was plenty good-looking, but down on his cash

And our poor little baby she fell hard and fast

When her daddy said no, she just couldn't cope

So our lovers came up with a plan to elope

**Chorus:**

Die, die, we all pass away

But don't wear a frown cause it's really okay

You might try and hide

And you might try and pray

But we all end up the remains of the day

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah

**Bonejangles:**

Oh, that's right

Okay, oh yeah

Come on, boys, pick it up

Yeah, like it

Okay, Chancy, take it

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Yo!)

Oh, that's nice

Yeah!

So they conjured up a plan to meet late at night

They told not a soul, kept the whole thing tight

Now her mother's wedding dress fit like a glove

You don't need much when you're really in love

Except for a few things, or so I'm​ told

Like the family jewels and a satchel of gold

Then next to the graveyard by the old oak tree

On a dark foggy night at a quarter to three

She was ready to go, but where was he?

**Crowd:**

And then?

**Bonejangles:**

She waited

**Crowd:**

And then?

**Bonejangles:**

There in the shadows, was it her man?

**Crowd:**

And then?

**Bonejangles:**

Her little heart beat so loud

**Crowd:**

And then?

**Bonejangles:**

And then, baby, everything went black

Now when she opened her eyes she was dead as dust

Her jewels were missing and her heart was bust

So she made a vow lying under that tree

That she'd wait for her true love to come set her free

Always waiting for someone to ask for her hand

When out of the blue comes this groovy young man

Who vows forever to be by her side (Oh yeah, oh yeah)

And that's the story of our own Corpse Bride (Oh yeah, oh yeah)

**Chorus:**

Die, die, we all pass away

But don't wear a frown cause it's really okay

You might try and hide

And you might try and pray

But we all end up the remains of the day

**Bonejangles:**

Do-bop

E-do-bop

E-didly-bob-e-do-bop

Yeah

[White Tiger faints as Nova catches her]

[Victor runs outside]
