You say boo to me, I’ll get you back.

Solitary spirit, there wandering free

Are you the ghost that always haunts me?

I hear you walking my hallways at night

To my surprise, spirit, you’re gone by daylight

Oh, active spirit, I hear you out there

Is it your intention to have me so scared?

For here in my bed with the sheets pulled up high

I wish that you, spirit, would learn how to fly

Oh, you loud spirit, that makes all that noise

You’re louder than all of my girls and my boys

In the morning, when’s sunshine or covering mist

I’m calling that number for the exorcist
