Hey, your AU inspired me to make a fic! Also, here's a 'Corpse Groom' version of the lyrics of 'remains of the day', I mainly based it off the brazilian dub, hope you don't mind:
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 makes the dead feel grief loom
Of our own jubiliciously lovely corpse groom
Yes, yes your time will come
Death will arrive, no matter your type
You can maybe try to cower and pray
But from the funeral you cannot escape
Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya (That’s right)
Oh, our guy was truly was catch,
But then one day, a gent came to town.
He was oh so handsome, but oh so broke.
And our poor little boy’s heart had him on a chokehold.
His daddy said: “Dear God, no!”, he just couldn't cope
So our lovers made a plan to lie and elope
Yes, yes your time will come
Death will arrive, no matter your type
You can maybe try to cower and pray
But from the funeral you cannot escape
Come on, boys, pick it up
So they agreed to meet up late at night
In the middle of the night, keep their lips shut tight
Daddy’s wedding suit fit like a glove
You don't need much when you're really in love
Except for a few things, just in case
Like the family jewels and a ring that’s pricey
Then next to the graveyard by the old oak tree
On a dark foggy night at a quarter to three
He was ready to go, but what about the gent?
There in the shadows, was it his man?
And then baby, everything went black
Now when he opened his eyes he was dead as dust
His jewels were missing and his heart was bust
So he made a vow lying under that tree
That he'd wait for his true love to come set him free
Always waiting for someone to ask for his hand
When out of the blue comes this groovy young man
Who vows to forever see him bloom
And that's the story of our dear corpse groom!
Yes, yes your time will come
Death will arrive, no matter your type
You can maybe try to cower and pray
But from the funeral you cannot escape
