about

Piece Of Your Ghost (Sunset Mix) Here we are. Already. Track number three, Side B. This ghost is lonely. The only song chosen from the 2021 album Piece Of Your Ghost. The title track appeared in the number two slot on the album. Piece Of Your Ghost was our seventh full-length release and although it didn’t chart well in our top ten or even twenty listing, it dominated the thirties. Hands down. Other versions of this song: Piece Of Your Ghost

lyrics

(Clean this house …)
Piece of your ghost stuck in my toaster
All the other ghosts are gone
Pieces must be lonely when I vacuum up their friends
Send them to wherever they belong

A piece of your ghost was in my closet
And then I saw it wander down the hall
Found another one … havin’ lots of fun
Scaring all the neighbours with telephone calls
Here’s another piece of your ghost -

Ooh yeah
Here’s another piece of your ghost
Ooh yeah

Piece of your ghost lurking in the kitchen
Going through the cupboards while I sleep
Poor thing must be starving, getting no attention
Fighting with the fruit flies over sweets

Piece of your ghost in the shower
Winking at me through the steam
And here’s another one having lots of fun
Tryin’ to take racy pictures of me
Uh, here’s a private show for a piece of your ghost

Ah yeah
Here’s another piece of your ghost
Ooh yeah

A piece of your ghost in the shower
Winking at me through the steam
And here’s another one having lots of fun
Tryin’ to take racy pictures of me
Watch me drink a toast with a piece of your ghost

Ooh yeah
Here’s another piece of your ghost
Ah yeah
Here’s another piece of your ghost
Here’s another piece of your ghost
A toast to the ghost with the most
Here’s another piece of your (shhh …) ghost
