So Cchellez challenged me to write a cheery song about a dreary subject - and, well, I cheated a bit and recorded a song that I've had floating about for a long while. Hope this still qualifies as a challenge met! :)

I'd love to hear this remixed so if anybody wants separate tracks lemme know!

Ps. The guitar is tuned to drop d and the chords are umm..D and A and some ones I made up that are like the top three strings on the 5th, 7th and 2nd fret :P

Exhumed a body from my bedroom yesterday
He shook the dust off then here’s what he had to say
Don’t waste a second - live loud everyday

The skeleton that’s under my bed
Is talkative although he’s dead
He's my bony motivator
To do it now instead of later

He writes me haikus, telling me to go outside
Let go the recluse, even though I’d rather hide
Step out the front door, life’s on your side

The skeleton that’s under my bed
Is talkative although he’s dead
He’s my bony motivator
To do it now instead of later

My friendly skeleton
He shows me how it’s done
I know one day I’ll be one
Til then I’m gonna have some fun

The skeleton that’s under my bed
Is talkative although he’s dead
He’s my bony motivator
To do it now instead of later

I pack his bones up neatly in the old suitcase
I’ve gotten sick of his hollow judgmental face
I’m happy fleeting floating in space

The skeleton that’s under my bed
Is talkative although he’s dead
He’s my bony motivator
To do it now instead of later

My friendly skeleton
He shows me how it’s done
I know one day I’ll be one
Til then I’m gonna have some fun
