The Family Ghost Lyrics

Look in the house, there's a ghost in the den
Writing a name on the walls
Pouring our lives into white paper cups
Planning to poison them all

You and me, we're not so different
We both can't feel a thing
You and me, we're not so different
As far as I can see

Back in her room, there's a faded red dress
folded and laid on the bed
Oh Eleanor, since I finally found you
I don't want you leaving again

You and me, we're not so different
We both can't feel a thing
You and me, we're not so different
As far as I can see

You're temporary, the family ghost
Happy birthday to you
You're temporary, the family ghost
Happy birthday to you
You're temporary, the family ghost!

Happy birthday to the family ghost
Light the candles, keep your blue eyes closed
Happy birthday to the family ghost
Make your wish, a secret, go on, blow
Happy birthday to the family ghost
Light the candles, keep your blue eyes closed

You're temporary, the family ghost
Happy birthday to you
You're temporary, the family ghost
Happy birthday to you
You're temporary!
Happy birthday!
You're temporary!
Happy birthday!
