lyrics

If you find yourself walking alone
And the wind starts singing a song
And out from nowhere the bones will appear
They'll dance around you til you are frightened and scared
Don't walk alone

Because they'll put you in a trance
And the skeletons will make you dance
[And you'll never return from the life of the scourge]
[And that's why you don't walk alone]

You find the party on the move
You're up all night drinking your booze
You hear rustling leaves coming from the trees
They'll dance around you, laugh at you and bring you to your knees
Don't make a move

Because they'll put you in a trance
And the skeletons will make you dance
[And you'll never return from the life of the scourge]
[And that's why the party stays at home]

You find yourself screaming at night
The bones will come and turn out all the lights
And they'll sing you a song about what you did wrong
They'll dance around you, laugh at you and make you dance all night
Don't scream at night!

Because they'll put you in a trance
And the skeletons will make you dance
[And you'll never return from the life of the scourge]
[And that's why you don't scream at night!]

Don't walk alone
Don't walk alone
Don't walk alone
