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 ***** Oh who The time is getting closer Oh who Time to be a ghost Oh who Every day we're getting closer The sun is getting dim Will we pay for who we been? 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 Oh who The time is getting closer Oh who Time to be a ghost Oh who Every day we're getting closer The sun is getting dim Will I pay for who I've 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 Oh who The time is getting closer Oh who Time to be a ghost Oh who Every day we're getting closer The sun is getting dim Will we pay for who we been?

Happy Phantom (Tory 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 ***** Oh who The time is getting closer Oh who Time to be a ghost Oh who Every day we're getting closer The sun is getting dim Will we pay for who we been? 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 Oh who The time is getting closer Oh who Time to be a ghost Oh who Every day we're getting closer The sun is getting dim Will I pay for who I've 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 Oh who The time is getting closer Oh who Time to be a ghost Oh who Every day we're getting closer The sun is getting dim Will we pay for who we been?
