Alice Cooper Pick Up The Bones Lyrics

Collecting pieces of my family In an old pillow case
This one has a skull but it don't have a face
These look like the arms of my father so strong
And the ring on this finger means my Grandmother's gone

Here's some legs in a pile where my sister once played
Here's some mud made of blood and these teeth are decayed
The ear of my brother the hand of a friend
And I just can't put them back together again

Pick up the bones and set them on fire
Follow the smoke going higher and higher
Pick up the bones And wish them goodnight
Pray them a prayer and turn out the light

There are stains on the floor where kitchen once stood
There are ribs in the fire place mixed with the wood
There are forces in the air ghosts in the wind
Some bullets in the back and some scars on the skin

There were demons with guns who marched through this place
Killing everything that breathed they're an inhuman race
There are holes in the walls b_____ hair on the bricks
And the smell of this hell is making me sick

Pick up the bones and set them on fire
Follow the smoke going higher and higher
Pick up the bones and wish them goodnight
Pray them a prayer and turn out the light

Pick up the bones and set them on fire
Follow the scope going higher and higher
Pick up the bones and wish them goodnight
Pray them a prayer and turn out the light

Now maybe someday the sun's gonna shine
Flowers will bloom and all will be fine
But nothing will grow on this burnt cursed ground
Cuz the breath of the death is the only sound
