Heya Tom, it's Bob from the (1)____________ down the hall
Good to see you buddy, how've you been?
Thing have been OK for me
Except that I'm a zombie now
I really wish you'd let us in
I think I speak for all of us when I say I understand
Why you folks might (2)________________ to submit to our demand
But here's an FYI
you're all gonna die screaming
All we (3)________ to do is eat your brains
We're not unreasonable
I mean, no one's (4)__________ eat your eyes
All we want to do is eat your brains
We're at an (5)______________ here
Maybe we (6)____________ compromise
If you open up the doors
We'll all (7)________ inside and eat your brains
I don't want to nitpick, Tom
But is this really your plan?
To spend your (8)__________ life (9)____________ inside a mall?
Maybe that's OK for now
But (10)______________ you'll be out of food and guns
And then you'll (11)________ to make the call
I'm not (12)__________________ to see
You haven't thought it through enough
You (13)__________ had the head for all that

I'm not a monster Tom
Well, technically I am
I guess I am

I've got another meeting Tom
Maybe we could wrap it up
I know we'll get to common ground somehow
Meanwhile I'll report back to my colleagues
Who were chewing on the doors
I guess we'll table this for now
I'm glad to see you take constructive criticism well
Thank you for (23)________ time
I (24)________ we're all (25)________ as hell
And we'll put this thing to bed
When I bash (26)________ head open
All we want to do is eat your brains
We're not unreasonable
I mean, no one's gonna eat your eyes
All we want to do is eat your brains
We're at an impasse here
Maybe we (27)____________ compromise
If you open up the doors
We'll all come inside and eat your brains
