Kirsty Lee Akers - Skeletons

About the same time every day
After the school bus takes the kids away
She slips out behind the garage
And rolls a big cloud nine
The guy next door sets his watch by the smoke
Sits behind the curtain and watches her go
Up, up and away on a magic carpet ride
With everybody's house like a valley of bones
Careful which way you go throwing stones

Skeletons in my closet
I hope I don't forget to lock it
I wouldn't want my dirty secrets out
All over town running round with yours
I guess I might as well applaud em
These skeletons, skeletons in my closet

The senator said there's a hole in the truth
If you follow the money you've got no proof
My receipts and my honey say I was here with her all the time
Everybody's got a little dirt on their boots
A shovel in the trunk they aint' afraid to use

CHORUS

With everybody's house like a valley of bones
Careful which way you go throwing stones

CHORUS

The hand bones connected to the lying bone
The lying bones connected to the master bone
The master bones connected to the broken throne
Where the king used to sit now he's all alone
