Unused orig lyrics, initial demo bounce track -- chopped :) :
Then you'll take your place with the playful dead
Not to fight or prey, or give advice 
You'll then bring, coffee and cake and advice safe
You'll know how much life's not free, a well named price paid indeed 

When the dead come to play, not fight and prey
And see all the tears and tares and, broken spheres
If they give you advice and not charge a price, -- bring coffee black and angle food cake
