Skeleton Song lyrics

Skeleton, you are my friend

But you are made of bone

And you have got no flesh and blood running through you

To help you protect the bone

Yes, Skeleton, we have been friends for years

And you have seen me through some trials and tribulations and some tears

But everybody thinks I'm weird

And I should have known

That it wouldn't be long until you

You've got me standing in an awkward position

With unwanted attention

And a need for explanation

And it's not that I'm letting go of you

But I dunno what to do

Skeleton, we are so close

But you have got no body

So why do you insist on wearing clothes?

Skeleton, when we were young it was easier

Even though the other kids, they would tease me

I was only seven I had you, but now I'm twenty-two

And now it's different

When I take you out and you

You've got me standing in an awkward position

With unwanted attention

And a need for explanation

And it's not that I'm letting go of you

But I dunno what to do

And sometimes, at night

I dream of the most terrible things

I take a hammer and I creep out of bed

And I raise it high, and I smash your head

Fibular and tibular and ribs and cages, too

In fact, while I'm here, I'll smash the whole of you

Smaaash!

But... Skeleton, you are my friend

And I could never bring your life to an end

Yes, Skeleton, you are my friend

And I will be there for you until the end

And even though when I take you out you've got me

You've got me standing in an awkward position

With unwanted attention

And a need for explanation

I could never let you go

And that is all I know
