"Skeleton Boy"
:[ lyrics ]:
He plants himself on the sofa,
With his headphones on,
And feeds his brain a solid blast of music,
Till the world is gone.
He has some crackerjacks for breakfast,
Then he smokes a little pot.
He thinks he's got the whole world by the balls.
He's so cool he's hot.
He thinks he knows it all outside and inside,
But he's starting the big race without his shoes tied.

Come out, come out, come out, come out, come out,
Skeleton Boy.
Come out, come out, come out, come out, come out,
Skeleton Boy.

He was born in times when men of questionable character,
Bought fortune and fame.
And he's still attached to an umbilical,
To play his games.
His parents, they're freaky aliens,
From another world.
Just sent here to provide for him,
And challenge his will.
If he talks at all he communicates in cynical tones,
But he's in for a rude awakening, he should feel it in his bones.

Come out, come out, come out, come out, come out,
Skeleton Boy.
Come out, come out, come out, come out, come out,
Skeleton Boy.

If there's still an ounce of hope inside,
That cage of bones,
That protects a heart to young to know,
How fast time can go. Then...

Come out, come out, come out, come out, come out,
Skeleton Boy.
Come out, come out, come out, come out, come out,
Skeleton Boy.
