Friendly Fires - Skeleton Boy Lyrics






I close my eyes, on the dance floor
And forget about you
I lose myself in flashing colours
I've gotta see it through

You're too much,
I take it that we're over
Should we even care at all?
You're too much, too much
Let's shake hands and say good(bye)

[X2]
Your love is out
But even despite it all
Give me your hand
Let's face this night and see it through

Right by my feet, lay broken glasses
You skeleton boy
Sweat from the walls, drips on my shoulder
I gotta see it through

You're too much,
I take it that we're over
Should we even care at all?
You're too much, too much
Let's shake hands and say good(bye)

Whoo, yeah
Whoo, yeah
Whoo, yeah

[X5]
Your love is out
But even despite it all
Give me your hand
Let's face this night and see it through

  34. C.... ....

    I remember the first time I saw this video, I was like 17 I played Hooke from HS and stayed home to smoke weed and I put MTV on and this was the first thing to play. I was so hesitant about changing the channel but then I watched the video more and more and I was like no way
    Seriously awesome song, but even cooler music video

  35. j.... r....

    El estribillo se parece al de una canción de título "You are not alone" de una cantante que se llama Olive.

  36. J.... C....

  61. J.... O....

    Been trying to look for this song for about 2 hours

  62. A.... A....

    Friendly Fires are all clones.

  63. R.... M....

    No se que me gusta mas el tema o su forma de bailar??

  64. M.... M....

    Perfection

  65. N.... ....

    Every thing leading up to hearing this song for the first time on the day of aug 31 2009 , I wish were different. Yet, had I never heard this song had events been different ..than I would not be able to appreciate the magic of my memories :) I’m too much lol

  66. B.... F....

    the chorus in this track has been ROBBBBBBED straight from 'you're not alone' by Olive

    B.... F....

    Or more like “sampled”

  67. L.... D....

    Quem pegou essa musica, quando passou na propaganda da Garnier?

    L.... D....

    qual propagandaaaa?

  68. u.... ....

    killing the bitrate with that confetti

  69. L.... I....

    Nba 2k12

  70. A.... ....

    2019 aún sigue en mi playlist

  71. J.... M....

    There’s two versions of this song this is the best version

    J.... M....

    The song was produced by Ed Epworth, the same of all Adele's songs (friendly fires and Adele have the same recording company). The music video uses the remix version by Ed Epworth. That's why it is so good

  72. J.... R....

    Those dance moves are rad!!!

  73. n.... ....

    so many years and still my fave

  74. S.... S....

    My son was a baby when this song came out. I can't believe it's been 10 years already. Timeless. Good memories!😃❤💃

  75. M.... D....

    2 0 1 9

  76. E.... A....

    How they gradually become more visible reminds me how one can grow by capturing their experience through song... :)

  77. G.... G....

    10 años

  78. T.... R....

    This version is absolute trash 🤣🤣🤣🤣

  79. J.... W....

    Is it just me but this song gives me feelings of hope

  80. b.... ....

    3:02 when its 2019 and you still dance to Skeleton Boy.

  81. J.... H....

    Fantastic song and innovative video. Should have been a big hit when it was released in 2009, but only got to No. 48, sadly. Incidentally, this is the single version, which is longer and far superior to the original album version IMHO. It is on the Special Edition of the album though, along with other bonus tracks and videos.

  82. D.... S....

    I picked this album up along with British sea company while I was in the navy and we pulled into Hong Kong, I also picked up empire of the suns first album but that's neither here nor there. All that I'm saying is I'm still blasting this late night in 2018

  83. W.... M....

    This song and cocaine go hand in hand

  84. R.... T....

    Unlike your love this song never gets old

  85. L.... C....

    I bet Serge from Kasabian approves this song and especially the skeleton outfit

  86. T.... D....

    2018 going onto 2019 still grooving.......

  87. C.... G....

    I love this song, but why does this version sound so much better than the album version???

  88. N.... M....

    Listening to this song makes me recall a Fujifilm ad back in the late 90s/ early 20s...

  89. R.... I....

    Love how this fucker dances. Hahaha. Too cool

  90. V.... M....

    Why is this video pitch-black? And why there's snow?
    Can everyone explain this video?

  91. D.... E....

    I remember the first time I saw this video or even heard of FF, was in 2008 and I saw this vid on a music channel whilst I was getting ready in the morning. I was so mesmerised by the video that I had to look up the band on YouTube and ended up being late to school that day. Ten years later and I still love FF 💀 ♥️

  92. A.... ....

    Meanwhile in Charlie Sheen's nose...

  93. c.... s....

    you should make a cover of this song... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nW4z-zqnzU4&t=166s

  94. c.... B....

    Man! Been looking for this one for such a long time.
