"Haunted House" lyrics

"Haunted House"

Welcome to my haunted house
I live here alone, ain't no one else
It's the last house at the end of the block
My friends all disappeared one by one

The cracks in the windows and the spiders, they crawl
Across the lattice from 1924
Life is too sweet, yeah, and life is too short
And there's nowhere to fall

And I don't want to live in this haunted house anymore
I don't want to live in this haunted house anymore

There's a painting on the wall
I see its eyes watching me as I walk on down the hall
Nobody stops to write, nobody calls
My friends all disappear, they all got lost

The cracks in the window and the spiders, they crawl
Across the lattice from 1924
Life is too sweet, man, and life is too short
And there's nowhere to fall

And I don't want to live in this haunted house anymore
I don't want to live in this haunted house anymore
