But everybody thinks I'm weird
Skeleton, when we were young, it was easy
So, why do you insist on wearing clothes?
And you have got no flesh and blood
Yes, skeleton, you are, you are my friend
With unwanted attention and a need for explanation
Skeleton, we are so close
And you have seen me through some trials
And that is all I know, know

But I don't know what to do
But you have got no body
But I don't know what to do
I take, take a hammer and I creep out of bed
And even though when I take you out

And I could never bring your life to an end
And I'll be there for you until the end
And tribulations and some tears
And that is all I, that is all I know

I could, I could never let you go
And that is all I know
And I should have known that it wouldn't be long
I dream of the most terrible things

You've got me, you've got me

I was only seven, I had you but now I'm twenty two
And now it's different when I take you out
With unwanted attention and a need for explanation
And sometimes at night

Skeleton, we have been friends for years
And I raise it high and I smash your head
Fibular and tubular and ribs and cages, too
And you, you've got me standing in an awkward position
And it's not that I'm letting go of you
But skeleton, you are my friend
Even though the other kids, they would tease me
And that is all I know
Until you, you've got me standing in an awkward position
Standing in an awkward position
Running through you to help protect the bone

With unwanted attention and a need for explanation
In fact, while I'm here, I'll smash the whole of you

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