‘Something In My House’ was the last Dead or Alive song to break the Top 40 in the UK (#12), and, while a mainstream flop in the US (#85), was a great success in dance clubs, reaching #3.
It also notable for being the only song on their album ‘Mad, Bad, and Dangerous to Know’ that matches the mood...
I,I,IIIII I,I,IIIII, I am being haunted
It's four o'clock in the morning
And I'm sitting on my stairs
And there's bangin' round the bedroom
But no one knows there's no one there
And I am here all by myself
And you're somewhere else with someone else
And I am being haunted by a love that isn't there
There is something in my house - my house
It's just a ghost of a long long dead affair
There is something in my house - my house
I just keep a hearing you runnin' on up my stairs
But you're not there
I really gotta say it to ya
Ya showed me a good time
But for every minute that you spent laughin'
There were hours that I cried
And I think about what might have been
If I'd never met that wicked queen
And my heart broke into pieces at midnight on Halloween
There is something in my house - my house
It's just a ghost of a long long dead affair
There is something in my house - my house
I just keep a hearing you runnin' on up my stairs
But you're not there
It's just a ghost of a long long dead affair
There is something in my house - my house
But you're not there
I,I,IIIII I,I,IIIII,I am being haunted
And I am here all by myself
And you're somewhere else with someone else
And I am being haunted by a love that isn't there
There is something in my house - my house
It's just a ghost of a long long dead affair
There is something in my house - my house
I just keep a hearing you runnin' on up my stairs
But you're not there
It's just a ghost of a long long dead affair
There is something in my house - my house
It's just a ghost of a long long dead affair
There is something in my house - my house
I just keep a hearing you runnin' on up my stairs
But you're not there
It's just a ghost of a long long dead affair
