Lyrics of Skeleton Song by Kate Nash
verse
Skeleton you are my friend
But you are made of bone
And you have got no flesh and blood
Running through you to help protect the bone
verse
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
chorus
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 don't know what to do
verse
Skeleton we are so close
But you have got no body
So why do you insist on wearing clothes?
verse
Skeleton when we were young
It was easy
Even though the other kids
They would tease me
But I was only seven I had you
But now I'm twenty-two
chorus
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 don't know what to do
bridge
'Cause 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
bridge
Fibular and tubular
And ribs and cages too
In fact, while I'm here
I'll smash the whole of you
verse
But skeleton, you are my friend
And I could never bring your life to an end
Yes skeleton you are, you are my friend
And I will be there for you until the end
chorus
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, I could never let you go
And that is all I know
outro
And that is all I know
And that is all I, that is all I know
And that is all I know, know
