Skeletons In The Closet

Alice Cooper · Special Forces [2010]

Woah oh, woah oh

Skeletons in my closet

Woah oh, woah oh, yeah

Skeletons in my closet



Skeletons in my closet

Skeletons in my shoes

Skeletons I can only see

Skeletons I can lose



I said woah oh, woah oh

I got skeletons in my closet

I said woah oh, woah oh, yeah

Skeletons in my closet



Skeletons in my basement

Loitering on my streets

Wearing my best pajamas

Sandwiched between my sheets



I said woah oh, woah woah, yeah

Skeletons in my closet

I said woah oh, woah woah, yeah

Skeletons in my closet



Ooh, I see bones

I see bones, I see bones

Ooh, I see bones

Say say bones, say, boys, don't you see them bones?



Rattle them bones at midnight

Shaking my bed, no sleep

I find fingers in my coat pocket

Skeletons from the deep



I said woah oh, woah oh

I got skeletons in my closet

I said woah oh, woah, woah oh

I got skeletons in my closet



Ooh, I see bones

I see bones, see, see bones

Ooh, I see bones

I see bones, say, boys, don't you see them bones?



No? Heart bones, leg bones

Ankle bones, arm bones

Finger bones, dogie bones, head bones



Skeletons in my closet

They even know when I'm in my closet

It's my, my closet, not your closet

My closet, you can have it though



Alice we want you

Alice, Alice, Alice, Alice

What? Whaddya want?
