[Intro]

Old man in the hills, living all alone

Out of touch for a while, I can tell by his tone

Asking where I travel, asking where I roam

Notice on his back he's got a bag full of bones

[Verse 1]

To me and you, the world is near and far

To this guy, it's just a fuckin' graveyard

No one's ever talked to him, I can't imagine how it feels

Now I'm a dog fetchin' bones and huntin' for a kill

Tell me why not rocks, shoes, runes, or even coins?

Books, wine, art, is there a club that you can join?

You got me runnin' around to all the world's zones

I don't understand the fascination with bones

But that's his collection

A dead guy affection

To you it's rеmains, to him an erection

I don't really gеt it, but I never ask questions

I'm just for the people and I don't learn my lesson

[Chorus]

I gotta get the bones

He's all alone

I wanna go home

I gotta get the bones

I really don't like this

I don't wanna get him bones like this

[Verse 2]

A rat, bat, frog, unicorn and goblin

Monkey, ram, goddamn, the list is never stoppin'

Worst of all, that's not all I had to do

This shit goes on and on, man, there was a fuckin' part two

I had to get an ogre, jogre, zogre, and mogre

Moss giant, lizard, experiment, and vulture

Bird, snake, troll, Dagannoth, and a dragon

Wolf, rabbit, does he even know what he's asking?

I hope no-one sees me or I'ma go to jail

Not to mention now, I'm definitely goin' to hell

I didn't know if I was done, it was hard to tell

And holy shit, my bag is startin' to smell

Collected all the bones, that's twenty-seven dead

All this slaughter and murder is spinnin' my head

Here you go, man

For you to carry on your sack

And as for my reward

He took it off his back

[Chorus]

I gotta get the bones

He's all alone

I wanna go home

I gotta get the bones

I really don't like this

I don't wanna get him bones like this
