Friendly Ghost Lyrics

Eels

If youre scared of dying you better
Not be scared to live.
Ive been spending all my days
Giving all I can give.
Last night I heard someone walking
Through my bedroom door.
What they want Im not exactly sure.
Chorus:
A friendly ghost,
Is all I need. (x2)
Working time on a broken watch,
Countin days till the the old shop sells me back my saxophone
And everyones gonna leave me alone.
Two times I thought I heard someone
Knocking on the glass.
I hit my head and prayed that it would last.
Chorus
If youre scared of dying you better
Not be scared to live.
Ive been carrying round a grudge,
I think I better forgive
Last night I heard footsteps walking
On the attic floor.
Got up and I opened up the door.
Chorus
If youre scared of dying you better
Not be scared to live.
Ive been spending all my days
Giving all I can give.
