Yeah you look good in that black light
Clothes gold like a mirror
Wanna see my reflection
Your hands up like a question

I know when they come to dig us up
I know what they’ll find
Skeletons dancing
At the scene of the crime
I know when they come to dig us up

Skeletons dancing
At the scene of the crime
I know when they come to dig us up
I know what they’ll find
Skeletons dancing
At the scene of the crime
