Lyrics

Skeletal Dance

Transparently obvious, tactless and trite

You give up on life mate, your not worth the fight

We're looking right through you to see to the soul

But sadly in your case you're only a hole

Skeletal dance

Skeletal dance

Skeletal dance

Skeletal dance

Living your life by the end of a string

You have to admit, it's not a great thing

Humptie's more older and Humptie's more wise

Except when he grins you'll see through the

Skeletal dance

Skeletal dance

Skeletal dance

Skeletal dance

Now Mickey's a mouse, so his young brother says

The best crimes are cowardly, crime never pays

Violence, destruction and killing's the shout

Where does he hide when the cat is about?
