48 years of livin' An angel in disguise 48 years of lovin' Smilin' with my eyes 48 years of memories Neatly tucked away When daylight dies, I hear them rise And dance upon their grave
What's that sound Comin' from the dresser on a night as black as pitch? What's that sound Comin' from the bureau, do I dare turn on the switch? Them bones, them bones, them dry bones All bleached and deathly white I've got skeletons in my closet and They're rattlin' tonight
The cheat bone's connected to deceit bones And thereby connected to lies I-love-yous said indiscriminately make the sockets for the eyes The love bones knock against the hate bones And fingers click in time There won't be sleep for the weary tonight 'Cause all those bones are mine
