Lyrics : My Best Friend’s a Skeleton

I met him on a rainy day
I was lost and wand'rin' around
I heard him comin' from miles away
'Cause his bones make a ruckus
When they hit the ground

He said

Hi!

That set the pace
And we talked and talked some more (You talked.)
Even though he had no face (Huh?)
It didn't matter 'cause we had a rapport

My best friend's a skeleton
He's a really stand-up guy
My best friend's a skeleton
We'll be friends 'til the day that we die!

That's nice, you say I'm a stand-up guy -
Why?

- even though though I have terrible scoliosis

Oh, c'mon, don't be so hard on yourself. It's not that bad. I mean, you're a great dancer

I've been stretching!

I can see that. Have you been taking dance cla**es?

I've taken some tap because... boy, do my feet really sing on the floor

Oh...

We pick up chicks, we go to bars
And we down our shots in a cinch (*whoosh noise*)
We go to cemetaries
To watch the stars
And we talk about the films
Of David Lynch
I love him

We are of a kindred ilk
So we very rarely fight (Haha!)
I only get grouchy
When he steals my milk (Uh-oh...)
Or when it gets cold
In the graveyard at night

Oh, it's so bone-chilling
In the graveyard at night!

Alright!

My best friend's

A skeleton

Yes!
And his humor's really dry (Knock, knock!)
My best friend's a skeleton
We'll be friends 'til the day that we die!

How do you make a skeleton laugh?

Oh, I know this

You tickle his funny bone! Heehee!

I was about to say that

C'mon, do it! Do it! Touch it!

Okay, alright

Oh, you are so shy

People think it makes no sense
But we know that it's fine
When life gets tough, or too intense
I know he's got my back!

And he's got mine!

And even if there comes a time
When my buddy isn't there (Why would you say that?)
He'll always be inside of me (*Laughing*)
So I'll never

Despair!

My best friend's a skeleton
He hugs me when I cry
My best friend's a skeleton
We'll be friends 'til the day we die!

My best friend's a skeleton
He's/I'm a really stand-up guy
My best friend's a skeleton
And now you know the reasons why

We'll be friends 'til the day that we die!
'Til the day that we shrivel up and die!

George, I love it that you have skin!

I love you, you old bag of bones!
