Back in 200 bc
When I was alive and free
I had a lady, you see
I loved her and she loved me
But then she decided to cheat
With a griffin
Caught her lippin' at his beak
And I just broke down in defeat
Forced to wander 'lone in the street
'Cause she's the ghost that haunts you
She's the ghost that haunts you
Every day
I see her when I look up at the moon
I see her in the cancer boy's tomb
I see her in satan's old saloon
I see her a goddamned lot
'Cause she's the ghost that haunts you
She's the ghost that haunts you
Every day
Satan, he tortures for fun
He works without a whip or a gun
And pain, well it weighs a ton
I'd rather have sex with the sun
No I don't believe in ghosts
Raise a glass, let's have a toast
I don't believe you
I can't see you
I've been told death works this way
When you die, that's the way you stay
I don't believe you
I can't see you
But she's the ghost that haunts me
She's the ghost that haunts me
Every day
