Electric Skeleton Lyrics

To attract their stares and frowns
Wear your pajamas down town;
'Cause there's nothing that's worth doing
When there's no one else around.
A reactionary slogan
Painted blue, across a wall.
We're never lost for words
But we just like the wherewithal.

You like my girl? Well, that's fine.
You know, I didn't make her,
I got no right to call her mine.
Through the night, through the town,
Don't you think that we can't see you
Follow us around?

One thing you have to understand;
Every time she takes my hand
It starts shaking, shaking, shaking, shaking,
Shaking, shaking, shaking, shaking,
Shaking.
Electric skeleton

I really wanna see her
But she's moved down to Victoria.
Instead I drive up and down her street,
Wearing sunglasses she picked for ya.
We both understand the rules,
We both know each other's way.
But like the old folks said,
Chivalry is buried nowaday

You like my girl? Well, that's fine.
But you know I didn't make her,
I got no right to call her mine.
Through the night, through the town,
Don't you think that we can't see you
Follow us around?

One thing you have to understand;
Every time she takes my hand
It starts shaking, shaking, shaking, shaking,
Shaking, shaking, shaking, shaking,
Shaking.
Electric skeleton.

You like my girl? It's alright,
But we were born to be together,
If only for one night.
In the dark, I sure ain't;
'Cause I saw you snoopin' 'round
And I recognise the paint

But you have to know it now,
She seems to have a power,
My hand starts shaking, shaking, shaking, shaking,
Shaking, shaking, shaking, shaking,
Shaking.
Electric skeleton.
