lyrics

bah-dup-ba-bah-dah, bah-dup-ba-bah-dah,
bah-dup-ba-bah-dah, bah-dup-ba- dah!

Could I feel alive, In this living room
Or is every space just another tomb
Put a record on, and we start to dance
Oh I wanna live, and I want romance

Here come my twenties, drunken and sad, I make it harder, I make it bad
Had one too many, how can I say, I haven’t called my sister today
And I’m not a ghost yet okay

Oh, I’m not a ghost yet okay, I’m alive I’m alive today,
I gotta give my love away, I’m not a ghost yet okay?
...I'm not a ghost yet okay?

Someone stood right here, now they’re in the ground
Was their life risqué, was their music loud?
All the famous ghosts, of the movie stars
Sit in dark cafés, and the la bars

I’m getting older what does it mean, now I’m a lover, now a machine
And even together, we’re on our own, does being adult mean being alone
And ghosts are on the telephone

Oh, I’m not a ghost yet okay, I’m alive I’m alive today,
I gotta give my love away, I’m not a ghost yet okay?
…I’m not a ghost yet okay?

bah-dup-ba-bah-dah, bah-dup-ba-bah-dah,
bah-dup-ba-bah-dah,bah-dup-ba- dah! (continue to end)

i'm not a ghost yet okay?
