Dearly Departed

Well\nYou and I both know that the house is haunted\nAnd you and I both know that the ghost is me\nYou used to catch me in your bed sheets just rattlin your chains\nWell back then baby, it didn’t seem so strange\nYou used to bite, I used to moan\nBut now I’m mumbling and you choke\nWell it ain’t so scary on my own\nTell me honey, what’s a dagger without a cloak?\nI don’t know 'cause\nYou and I both know that the house is haunted\nAnd you and I both know that the ghost is me\nYou used to catch me in your bed sheets just rattlin your chains\nWell back then baby, it didn’t seem so strange\nIn the midnight hour you came alive\nI was lookin' for my crystal ball\nI was busy tryin' to charm that snake ssss\nWhen the sun came up we had no place to hide\nAnd you had to tell your friends that my fangs were fake\nI just had to\nYou and I both know that the house is haunted\nAnd you and I both know that the ghost is me\nYou used to catch me in your bed sheets just rattlin your chains\nWell back then baby, it didn’t seem so strange\nEven when one is dead and gone\nIt still takes two to make a house a home\nWell I’m as lonesome as the catacombs\nI hear you call my name but no one is there\nExcept a feeling in the air\nYou and I both know that the house is haunted\nYeah you and I both know that the ghost is you\nUsed to walk around screaming, all slamming all 'dem doors\nWell I’m all grown up now, I don’t scare easy no more\nYeah, you and I both know\nOooohh\nYeah, you and I both know\nOooohh\nYeah, you and I both know\nOooohh\nOooohh
