And it's not that I'm letting go of you
You've got me, you've got me
Skeleton, when we were young, it was easy
And tribulations and some tears
And you, you've got me standing in an awkward position
With unwanted attention and a need for explanation
I could, I could never let you go
And I could never bring your life to an end
Standing in an awkward position
I was only seven, I had you but now I'm twenty two
With unwanted attention and a need for explanation
And that is all I, that is all I know
With unwanted attention and a need for explanation
Running through you to help protect the bone
And now it's different when I take you out
Yes, skeleton, you are, you are my friend
And I'll be there for you until the end
But you have got no body
I take, take a hammer and I creep out of bed
And I should have known that it wouldn't be long
Skeleton, we are so close
And sometimes at night
And you have seen me through some trials
But everybody thinks I'm weird
Skeleton, we have been friends for years
But I don't know what to do
In fact, while I'm here, I'll smash the whole of you
And I raise it high and I smash your head
I dream of the most terrible things
And that is all I know
Fibular and tubular and ribs and cages, too
Until you, you've got me standing in an awkward position
And it's not that I'm letting go of you
And that is all I know
And even though when I take you out
And you have got no flesh and blood
But skeleton, you are my friend
But I don't know what to do
Even though the other kids, they would tease me
So, why do you insist on wearing clothes?
