song lyrics for the season of spooky

Skeleton Dance

If I could walk around just in my skeleton
If I could jump right out of my skin
Oh what fun I could have frightening everyone
And those who are jaded would be so jealous
of my abilities.

If I could walk around contained by my skeleton
If I could flit about and flop around a bit
If I could jump around inside my skeleton
Oh then what a glorious insect
You would see.

If I could walk around mostly in my skeleton,
But retain those things it keeps within
Like my eyeballs, brain, heart and tongue
Oh then what a lovely skeleton
I would be.

If I could dance around, just me and my skeleton
Spreading seeds of haunted flowers around the world
And every move I take would make the ground more fertile
And turn this sphere into a haunted island earth.

But if I walked around just in my skeleton
If I jumped right out of my skin
There would always be those who could not handle it
They would lock me up
(and I know what you are thinking)
but they would not throw away the key.
They would do lots of testing
And I would never be free!
