Lyrics Frank Black

Frank Black

Skeleton Man

I'm a skeleton I'm a skeleton man

Hold my skeleton hold my skeleton hand

I met a child in the hills from the people of the corn

It's been 800 years since this child was born

And in his ribs I found a pearl

An offering from the corn world

Hold my hand

We'll walk in the hot sun

Hold my hand

In the hot sand

Down in the valley where there used to be the farms

Doctor digger found a room full of arms

And now there's just a dog that barks

Chained to a one-man trailer park
