Lyrics

And I'll run naked through the streets without my mask on
And I will never need umbrellas in the rain
I'll wake up in strawberry fields every day
And the atrocities of school I can forgive
The happy phantom has no right to bitch
Oo who
The time is getting closer
Oo who
Time to be a ghost
Oo who
Every day we're getting closer
The sun is geting dim
Will we pay for who we been, yeah

So if I die today I'll be the happy phantom
And I'll go wearin' my naughties like a jewel
They'll be my ticket to the universal opera
There's judy garland taking budda by the hand
And then these seven little men get up to dance
They say confucius does his crossword with a pen
I'm still the angel to a girl who hates to sin

Oo who
The time is getting closer
Oo who
Time to be a ghost
Oo who
Every day we're getting closer
The sun is geting dim
Will I pay for who I've been, yeah

Or will I see you dear and wish I could come back
You found a firl that you could truly love again
Will you still call for me when she falls asleep
Or do we soond forget the things we cannot see

Oo who
The time is getting closer
Oo who
Time to be a ghost
Oo who
Every day we're getting closer
The sun is geting dim
Will I pay for who I've been, yeah

And if I die today, and if I die today, and if I die today
Uh uh chasing nuns out in the yard
Yeah yeah la la
