Haunted House Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My heart is like a haunted house
There's things in there that scratch about
They make their music in the night
And in the day they give me such a fright

[Verse 2]
My heart is like a haunted house
There's things in there that scream and shout
They make their music in the night
Wish I could find a way to let them out, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
Do you remember winding your arm around my shoulder
As we wandered 'round the hill?
Now I'm in that fog forever

In full collaboration with the weather 'cause

[Chorus]
I'm not free yet (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'm not free yet (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'm not free yet (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'm not free yet (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'm not free yet (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'm not free yet (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'm not free yet (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I'm not free yet
[Outro]
My heart is like a haunted house
There's things in there that scratch about
They make their music in the night
And in the day they give me such a fright

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
