Happy Phantom lyrics by Tori Amos

And if I die today
I'll be the Happy Phantom
And I'll go chasin'
the nuns out in the yard
And I'll run naked through the
streets without my mask on

And I will never need
umbrellas in the rain
I'll wake up in strawberry
fields every day
And the atrocities
of school I can forgive
The Happy Phantom
has no right to bitch

Oohwhoo
the time is getting closer
Oohwhoo
the time to be a ghost
Oohwhoo
every day we're getting closer
The sun is getting dim
Will we pay, who we'd been
yeah

So if I die today
I'll be the Happy Phantom
And I'll go wearin'
my naughties like a jewel
They'll be my ticket to the
universal opera
There's Judy Garland taking
Buddha by the hand
And then these seven
little men get up to dance
they say Confucius does his
crossword with a pen
I'm still the angel
to a girl who hates to sin

Oohwhoo
the time is getting closer
Oohwhoo
the time to be a ghost
Oohwhoo
every day we're getting closer
The sun is getting dim
Will we pay
for who we'd been
yeah

Or will I see you dear
and wish I could come back
You found a girl that you
could truly love again
Will you still call for me
when she falls asleep
Or do we soon forget
the things we cannot see

Oohwhoo
the time is getting closer
Oohwhoo
the time to be a ghost
Oohwhoo
every day we're getting closer
The sun is getting dim
Will we pay
for who we'd been
yeah

And if I die today
And if I die today
And if I die today
Chasin' the nuns out in the yard
