Lyrics

Shit Ghost

[Verse 1]

Take a sheet from the bed

Cut two eye-holes and put it on my head

I just can't get you to admit

That I'm always by your side

In spirit

[Chorus]

Like a shit ghost

Rattle my chains

Go woo (Woo!)

I wanna haunt this place

[Verse 2]

But you took me for a fool

To now take me as a ghoul

You're a broken hearts collector

And an omnipresent spectre

Spectre

[Chorus]

Like a shit ghost

Rattle my chains

Go woo (Woo!)

I wanna haunt this place

If it wasn't for you

[Solo]

[Chorus]

A shit ghost

Rattle my chains

Go woo (Woo!)

I wanna haunt this place

But I never had the guts

Come and interact

I only wanna scare you

Provoke you to react
