Little Ghost

Boy George · Sold [1987]

Here comes the little ghost

Here comes the little ghost

Here comes the little ghost



Oh what a bad mood he's in in the morning

Acting like that is the best thing that's going

Seems like he was always dancing around you

And I remember him spinning all over

I've been here but not for much longer

Go out and get me a hand full of powder

Red eyes and red lips that come up and kiss you

Sun coming up on a big broken picture



Here comes the little ghost

Here comes the freaky boy

Here comes the little ghost



Angel with nothing but make-up and fab things

Diamonds and fur coats and money and gold rings

Pictures of people who love ya and kick things

One for the blue boy and two for the dead kings

Here is an angel with wings on his shoulders

Very expressive cigarette holder

Here is an angel with a bow and arrow

Saying God doesn't know how to put on his halo



Here comes the little ghost

Here comes the freaky boy

Here comes the Rolls Royce

Here comes the little ghost



Here he comes

Here he comes



Here comes the freaky boy

Here comes the Rolls Royce

Here comes the little ghost

Here comes the little ghost

Little Ghost

Boy George's "Little Ghost" serves as a haunting centerpiece on the 1987 album *Sold*. Released during the height of his solo career, the track exemplifies the post-punk and new wave influences that defined his early work. With its atmospheric production and George's distinctive vocal delivery, the song captures the melancholic and introspective mood characteristic of late 1980s alternative rock. It stands as a significant recording that contributed to the enduring legacy of his discography, reflecting the era's shift toward more personal and textured songwriting while maintaining the dramatic flair that made him a cultural icon.
