Skeletons - Stevie Wonder

Lyrics
words to study

Skeletons in your closet

Itchin' to come outside

Messin' with your conscience

In a way your face can't hide

Oh things are gettin' real funky

Down at the old corral

And it's not the skunks that are stinkin'

It's the stinkin' lies you tell

[Bridge]

What did your mama tell you about lies

She said it wasn't polite to tell a white one

What did your daddy tell you about lies

He said one white lie turns into a black one

So, it's gettin' ready to blow

It's gettin' ready to show

Somebody shot off at the mouth and

We're getting ready to know

It's gettin' ready to drop

It's gettin' ready to shock

Somebody done turned up the heater

An' a it's gettin' ready to pop

Crevices in your pantry

Now what do we have in here

Havin' a day time nightmare

Has always been your biggest fear

Oh things are gettin' real crucial
