You were the promise at dawn,
I was the morning after.
You were Jesus Christ my Lord,
I was the money lender.
You were the sensitive woman,
I was the very reverend Freud.
You were the manual orgasm,
I was the dirty little boy.
Chorus:
And is this what you wanted
to live in a house that is haunted
by the ghost of you and me?
And is this what you wanted
to live in a house that is haunted
by the ghost of you and me?
You were Marlon Brando
I was Steve Mcqueen
You were K.Y. jelly
I was Vaseline
You were the father of modern medicine
I was Mr. Clean
You where the whore and the beast of Babylon
I was Rin-Tin-Tin
Chorus:
And is this what you wanted
to live in a house that is haunted
by the ghost of you and me?
And is this what you wanted
to live in a house that is haunted
by the ghost of you and me?
You got old and wrinkled
I stayed seventeen
You lusted after so many
I lay here with one
You defied your solitude
I came through alone
You said you could never love me
I undid your gown
Chorus:
And is this what you wanted
to live in a house that is haunted
by the ghost of you and me?
And is this what you wanted
to live in a house that is haunted
by the ghost of you and me?
I mean is this what you wanted...
to live in a house that is haunted
by the ghost of you and me?
That's right, is this what you wanted...
to live in a house that is haunted
