lyrics

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

Well
You and I both know that the house is haunted
And you and I both know that the ghost is me
You used to catch me in your bed-sheets just a-rattling your chains
Well back then baby, it didn't seem so strange

You used to bite, I used to moan
But now I'm mumbling and you choke
Well I ain't so scary on my own
Tell me honey, what's a dagger without a cloak?
Well I don't know

'Cause
You and I both know that the house is haunted
Yeah you and I both know that the ghost is me
You used to catch me in your bed-sheets just a-rattling your chains
Well back then baby, it didn't seem so strange

In the midnight hour, you came alive
I was looking for my crystal ball
I was busy trying to charm that snake
When the sun came up we had no place to hide
And you had to tell your friends that my fangs where fake
I just had to

Well you and I both know that the house is haunted
Yeah you and I both know that the ghost is me
You used to catch me in your bed-sheets just a-rattling your chains
Well back then baby, it didn't seem so strange

But even when one is dead and gone
It still take two to make a house a home
Well I'm as lonesome as the catacombs
I hear you call my name but no one's there
Except a new one in the air

Oh you and I both know that the house is haunted
Yeah you and I both know that the ghost is you
You used to walk around screaming, all slamming all 'dem doors
Well I'm all grown up now and I don't scare easy no more

But you and I both know
Ooh
Yeah you and I both know
Ooh
Yeah you and I both know
Ooh
Ooh
