Dearly Departed - Shovels & Rope

Ooooh

Well

You and I both know that the house is haunted

Yeah, you and I both know that the ghost is of me

Used to catch me in your bed sheets just rattlin' your chains

Well back then, baby, it didn’t seem so strange

I used to bite.

I used to moan

But now there’s nothin' left in show

Well I ain’t so scary on my own

Tell me, honey, what’s a dagger without a cloak

Well I don’t know

You and I both know that the house is haunted

You and I both know that the ghost is me

Used to catch me in your bed sheets just rattlin' your chains

Well back then, baby, it didn’t seem so strange

In the midnight hour, you came alive

I was lookin' for my crystal ball

I was busy tryin' to charm that snake

When the sun came up, we had no place to hide

And you had to tell your friends that my fangs were fake

I just had to

You and I both know that the house is haunted

You and I both know that the ghost is me

Used to catch me in your bed sheets just rattlin' your chains

Well back then, baby, it didn’t seem so strange

Even when one is dead and gone

It still takes two to make a house a home

Well, I’m as lonesome as the catacombs

I hear you call my name, but no one’s there

Except a feelin' in the air

You and I both know that the house is haunted

You and I both know that the ghost is you

Used to walk around screamin', slammin' all them doors

Well, I’m all grown up now.

I don’t scare easy no more

You and I both know

You and I both know

You and I both know

Ooooh
