Ooooh (x4)
Well
You and I both know that the house is haunted
Yeah, you and I both know that the ghost is of me
Used to catch me in your bed sheets just rattlin' your chains
Well back then, baby, it didn't seem so strange
I used to bite. I used to moan
But now there's nothin' left in show
Well I ain't so scary on my own
Tell me, honey, what's a dagger without a cloak
Well I don't know
'Cause
You and I both know that the house is haunted
Yeah, you and I both know that the ghost is of me
Used to catch me in your bed sheets just rattlin' your chains
Well back then, baby, it didn't seem so strange
In the midnight hour, you came alive
I was lookin' for my crystal ball
I was busy tryin' to charm that snake
Hsss-hsss
When the sun came up, we had no place to hide
And you had to tell your friends that my fangs were fake
I just had to
Oh
Well
You and I both know that the house is haunted
Yeah, you and I both know that the ghost is of me
Used to catch me in your bed sheets just rattlin' your chains
Well back then, baby, it didn't seem so strange
Well, even when one is dead and gone
It still takes two to make a house a home
Well, I'm as lonesome as the catacombs
I hear you call my name, but no one's there
Except a feelin' in the air
'Cause
You and I both know that the house is haunted
Yeah, you and I both know that the ghost is of you
Used to walk around screamin', or slammin' all them doors
Well, I'm all grown up now. I don't scare easy no more
But you and I both know
Ooooh
Yeah, you and I both know
Ooooh
Yeah, you and I both know
Ooooh (x2)
