If you're scared to die

You'd better not be scared to live

I've been spending all my days

Giving all I can give

Last night I heard someone walk in

Through my bedroom door

What they wanted I'm not exactly sure

A friendly ghost is all I need

A friendly ghost is all I need

Marking time on a broken watch

Counting days till the old pawn shop

Sells me back my saxophone

Then everyone's gonna leave me alone

Two times I thought I heard someone

Knocking on the glass

I hid my head and prayed that it would pass

A friendly ghost is all I need

A friendly ghost is all I need

If you're scared to die

You better not be scared to live

I've been carrying round a grudge

Think I better forgive

Last night I heard footsteps walking

On the attic floor

I got up and I opened up the door

A friendly ghost is all I need

A friendly ghost is all I need

A friendly ghost

(If you're scared to die)

Is all I need

(You'd better not be scared to live)

A friendly ghost

(I've been spending all my days)

Is all I need

(Giving all I can give)
