I'm taping up around the doors And nailing shut the windows Sawdust and syrup in the cracks between the boards Keeping out the moths and the minnows And did you ever think Oh, there's a ghost in this house And its opening my mouth There's a ghost in this house Let him out, let him out, let him out Oh Now its the end of the season and the last of our supplies So check your fingernails Burning through the calendars and E strings Oh yeah, we're breaking all the scales Do you ever drink and do you ever think Oh there's a ghost in this house And its opening your mouth There's a ghost in this house Let him out, let him out, let him out Oh there's a ghost in this house And its tossing us about There's a ghost in this house Let him out, let him out, let him out Let him out, let him out, let him out Let him out, let him out, let him out
